Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 14CS10) was issued by the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) to support the creation of a best-practices white paper focused specifically on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) juveniles involved in the corrections system. The central purpose is to identify and clearly describe recommended practices that help agencies manage LGBTI youth safely and respectfully, both when they are in custody and when they are supervised in the community. NIC framed the project as a practical, field-relevant resource aimed at improving policies and day-to-day operations for juvenile justice and corrections professionals who work with this population.
NIC planned to fund one award through a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient would not work in isolation but would collaborate closely with NIC during the project. The project period was set for 12 months and was expected to begin no later than August 15, 2014. Total estimated funding was $50,000, with an award ceiling of $50,000 and no cost sharing or matching requirement. The activity category was Law, Justice, and Legal Services, and it fell under CFDA 16.602 (Corrections Research and Evaluation and Policy Formulation). The solicitation was posted on June 6, 2014, and closed on June 30, 2014, with the opportunity archived on July 30, 2014.
The work described centers on developing the white paper through multiple information-gathering and consensus-building steps. Key activities include convening a subject matter expert meeting to draw on specialized knowledge and frontline experience; conducting a review of current literature and research so that recommendations are grounded in existing evidence and professional standards; and interviewing both staff and youth, including the use of focus groups. Taken together, these tasks are intended to capture what is known from research as well as what is happening in real facilities and supervision settings, then translate that into concrete, recommended best practices that agencies can adopt or adapt.
Eligibility was broad and designed to attract experienced contributors. NIC stated that eligible applicants could be public or private agencies, educational institutions, organizations, individuals, or teams, as long as they had expertise relevant to the subject matter described in the announcement. The solicitation also provided a point of contact for assistance accessing the full announcement: Melanie Simms, Administrative Officer, at (202) 353-0484.
