Opportunity Summary:
The National Corrections Reporting Program (NCRP) 2010-2013 grant opportunity was issued by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) to fund a single organization to serve as the national data collection agent for NCRP during the 2010 through 2013 reporting years. The core purpose was to gather and process individual-level (offender-level) records from state prison systems, focusing on key correctional events such as admissions to prison custody or supervision, releases from prison, and discharges from parole. In practical terms, the funded entity would be responsible for assembling standardized person-based data that allow BJS to track how people move through major stages of the corrections system over time.
BJS intended to use the resulting NCRP datasets to support ongoing national statistical and research efforts on corrections. The agency highlighted several major analytic uses: examining shifts in the racial and offense composition of corrections populations, measuring movements and transitions (for example, how individuals enter prison, how and when they leave, and how parole discharge fits into the overall process), and making meaningful comparisons across states. Because state corrections systems differ in policies, practices, and data systems, the NCRP’s value depends heavily on careful data collection and harmonization so that trends and cross-state differences can be studied on a comparable basis.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the information and statistics funding activity category (CFDA 16.734, Special Data Collections and Statistical Studies). A cooperative agreement generally signals that BJS expected substantial involvement during the project period, which often includes coordination on technical requirements, data standards, deliverables, and review of interim products. The solicitation anticipated one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000 and an award ceiling of $1,000,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching funds.
Eligibility was broad but defined. Applicants could include for-profit organizations, nonprofit organizations, faith-based and community organizations, institutions of higher education, and consortia. The announcement also emphasized demonstrated organizational and community-based experience working with American Indian and Alaska Native communities, including eligibility for tribal for-profit and nonprofit organizations, tribal colleges and universities, and tribal consortia. At the same time, the opportunity noted a key federal financial condition for for-profit recipients: they could not earn profit from the award or charge a management fee as part of performing the work, consistent with Office of Justice Programs fiscal requirements.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted on April 12, 2010, with a closing date of June 11, 2010, and an archive date of July 11, 2010. The funding opportunity number was 2010-BJS-2661, and BJS listed a program analyst contact for access issues with the full announcement: Lisa Price Grear at (202) 616-3561.
