Our Programs
CFSRE supports the FRFF vision by advancing forensic science through training, education, and research. It fosters the growth of passionate, inquisitive leaders while promoting the integrity and impact of forensic science in public health and safety.
At the Forensic Sciences Mentoring Institute (FMI), a Fredric Rieders Family Foundation program, high school students spend seven weeks solving a mock crime using real forensic techniques. Since 1994, the program has offered hands-on, interactive training with the same advanced tools used in leading forensic labs.
Support the next generation of STEM leaders. Inspired by founder Fredric Rieders’ vision, CFSRE uses the excitement of forensic science to engage students and provide hands-on learning, career exploration, and training opportunities for all ages.
