About the program

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the NIJ FY 2026 Research on the Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation of Elderly Individuals. This opportunity seeks to improve knowledge and understanding of relevant issues through science. Under this NOFO, NIJ is seeking proposals to address one or more of the following topic areas: 1. Research examining the role of emerging technologies in fraud and exploitation, including technology-enabled approaches to enhance detection and investigation. 2. Forensic research to inform and strengthen the investigation and prosecution of elder abuse cases. 3. Evaluation of programs that seek to prevent, intervene in, or respond to the abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation of older adults. 4. Research to inform the development of effective education and intervention programs that address financial fraud against older adults. Applications proposing research projects not addressing one of these four areas will not be considered.
