Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Two Hearings of the National Institute of Corrections Advisory Board" (Funding Opportunity Number 11AD12) is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the National Institute of Corrections (NIC). It seeks a single recipient to enter into a 12-month cooperative agreement focused on planning and organizing two formal hearings for the NIC Advisory Board. The project is time-bound and is expected to begin no later than September 1, 2011, with the work centered on producing well-run, substantive advisory hearings that help the Board shape guidance for NIC and the broader corrections field.

The core purpose of the cooperative agreement is meeting and hearing organization in support of two targeted policy discussions. Hearing #1 is dedicated to organizational culture within corrections agencies and is scheduled for November 2-3, 2011 in San Diego, California. Hearing #2 is focused on cost containment in corrections and is planned for April or May 2012 at the National Correctional Academy in Aurora, Colorado. Through these two events, the selected awardee would support the Advisory Board in gathering input, structuring the dialogue, and facilitating a process that results in practical direction and recommendations relevant to corrections leadership, operations, and policy.

This opportunity is funded under CFDA 16.602, "Corrections Research and Evaluation and Policy Formulation." NIC anticipates making one award, with a maximum award ceiling of $100,000 and no minimum award floor specified. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to provide non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, NIC is likely to have substantial involvement during the project period, typically meaning the agency may collaborate on planning expectations, deliverables, or coordination details tied to the hearings.

Eligibility is broad and includes essentially any qualified public or private entity, educational institution, organization, individual, or team, as long as they can demonstrate expertise in the areas described and the capacity to execute meeting logistics and hearing organization effectively. The activity category is listed as "Other," clarified specifically as meeting organization, signaling that the main deliverable is the successful execution of these two hearings rather than research or direct service programming.

Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted on July 27, 2011, with an application closing date of August 10, 2011 (the same date listed as both the original and current closing date). The opportunity was archived on August 11, 2011, indicating it is no longer open, but the summary details remain useful for understanding the scope and structure of NIC cooperative agreements related to convenings and advisory functions.

For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement at the time, the listed point of contact was Pamela Davison, Administrative Assistant, reachable by phone at 202-353-0484.
