GRANTS & FUNDED INITIATIVES
Project Manager. [PI: Dr. Faye S. Taxman]. Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR): A Simulation
Tool, funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance – Innovator’s Field study (2009-DG-BXK026). This study created a simulation model for federal, state, and local criminal justice
agencies to use to determine whether the services they provide are responsive to the risk and
need factors of offenders in their correctional systems. The goal of the RNR Simulation Tool is
to provide better linkage between offender needs and available services. This project was funded
for two years, $500,000. Additional funding was provided by the Public Welfare Foundation and
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.
Project Manager. [PI: Dr. Faye S. Taxman]. Analysis of the 2010 Medical Monitoring Project
Data, funded by the Virginia Department of Health, Division of Disease Prevention, HIV
4
Surveillance Program. This project involved data cleaning, data analysis, and reporting to
summarize the 2010 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Medical Monitoring Project in
the Commonwealth of Virginia ($45,000).
