The CD-ROM contains the 42 presentations, welcoming and opening remarks, and closing remarks and discussion that were heard at the 2002 DNA Grantees’ Workshop, which is sponsored by the National Institute of Justice.

Opening remarks were made by National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Director Sarah V. Hart, who welcomed the gathering of DNA Grantees to their third annual workshop. Next, a presentation by Lisa Forman, Director of the Investigative and Forensic Sciences Division of NIJ, provided participants with an understanding of NIJ’s mission.
