Crime, Violence and Victimization Research at the National Institute of Justice

• In Event: Social Science Research Initiatives at the National Institute of Justice

Abstract

This presentation will focus on current initiatives in the Crime, Violence and Victimization Research Division including firearms, geospatial strategies and crime mapping, and elder abuse. Aspects of violence against women including intimate partner violence, teen dating violence, sexual violence and stalking have been a mainstay of our efforts for many years. We will continue to focus on these areas as well as address research on broader issues of victimization.
