ABSTRACT

Hendricks, McKean, and Hendricks (2003, p. 178), in the college text Crisis Intervention, note the following:

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) notes in many of its publications that it is “… the research, development, and evaluation agency of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). NIJ provides objective, independent, evidence-based knowledge and tools to enhance the administration of justice and public safety.”
