Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Sustaining Implementation of Organizational Resources to Support Behavior Change" (Funding Opportunity Number 26CS05) is not an open competition and is not seeking new applications. The notice is strictly informational and serves to announce the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) intent to continue an existing cooperative agreement award identified as 25CS06GLV5. In other words, this posting is essentially a continuation notice for a current award rather than a funding announcement where outside organizations can apply.

This opportunity is listed under the "Other" opportunity category and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument type, which typically means the agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The funding activity category is also marked as "Other," and the program is associated with CFDA number 16.603, which corresponds to National Institute of Corrections programming.

The posting indicates an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that it is meant to support the continuation of a single, specific project already underway under the referenced cooperative agreement. The listed award ceiling is $200,000, which can be understood as the maximum amount anticipated for this continuation action. While an "Original Closing Date" of 2026-03-27 appears in the record, it should not be interpreted as a deadline for new applicants since the announcement repeatedly states it is not a request for applications.

Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," but in practical terms that does not change the intent of the notice: NIC is continuing an existing cooperative agreement rather than soliciting proposals from the public. The notice was created on 2026-03-12 and is issued by the National Institute of Corrections. Anyone looking for an opportunity to apply for this specific project should understand that there is no application process associated with this announcement; it functions as a formal public notification that the current award will be continued.
