Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is offering a discretionary cooperative agreement to support the development and pilot testing of a new training curriculum focused on effectively working with justice-involved women. This opportunity, titled "Curriculum Development for Women Offenders Developing an Agency wide Approach" (Funding Opportunity Number 11AD13), is designed to update and expand NICs earlier training work by incorporating newer research findings about womens risks, needs, strengths, and pathways into the justice system. The end goal is to improve both system-level outcomes and individual outcomes for women involved in jails, prisons, and community corrections.
The project runs for an 18-month period and centers on creating a blended learning curriculum, meaning it will combine in-person and online or technology-supported instruction. The curriculum is intended for correctional leadership teams across different settings, including jail administrators, prison leadership, and community corrections decision-makers. Rather than focusing only on frontline practices, the curriculum is meant to guide agencies through an organization-wide planning process, helping them build a consistent, agencywide approach to managing and supporting justice-involved women using evidence-informed strategies.
NIC expects the curriculum to be grounded in research-based information and designed according to adult learning theory, with a strong emphasis on practical application. The solicitation specifically calls for the use of blended learning and web-based technology, indicating NIC wants a modern training product that can be delivered flexibly and scaled across jurisdictions. A major component of the work is not just writing or packaging training materials, but also piloting the curriculum to test usability and effectiveness and to refine the content based on real-world feedback from the intended audience.
Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $135,000, with no minimum award amount stated, and NIC anticipates making one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. Eligible applicants are broadly defined and include state or local government entities, private agencies, educational institutions, organizations, individuals, or teams, as long as they have demonstrated expertise in the relevant subject matter and can show the capacity to carry out a project of this size and scope.
Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted on July 29, 2011, with an application deadline of August 22, 2011, and an archive date of August 23, 2011.
