Opportunity Information: Apply for 18CS21

The Department of Justice, through the National Institute of Corrections (NIC), released a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Gender Responsive Training Tips for Staff working with Justice Involved Women" (Funding Opportunity Number 18CS21, CFDA 16.601). The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, which signals that NIC expected to stay actively involved in shaping the work rather than simply funding a product and stepping back. The opportunity was posted on December 20, 2017, with an original application deadline of January 19, 2018.

The purpose of the project was to produce a finalized set of practical, gender-responsive training tips intended for staff and professionals who work with justice-involved women. The work was framed as a continuation of an existing collaboration between Migima and NIC. A draft document already existed as the starting point, identified as "Tips for Staff who work with Justice-Involved Women" (referenced in the notice as draft document #822052). Applicants were expected to use that draft as the foundation and, in coordination with NIC, refine and complete the content into a polished series of tips that could be used by correctional practitioners and other relevant stakeholders.

In terms of scope, the deliverable was not described as a broad research initiative or a large-scale training program rollout. Instead, it centered on developing and finalizing guidance materials that staff could use in real-world settings when interacting with women in custody or under supervision. The emphasis on "gender responsive" suggests that the tips were intended to reflect the distinct pathways, needs, experiences, and risks commonly seen among justice-involved women, and to translate that understanding into day-to-day professional practices. The audience was explicitly broader than just one role or one agency; it included correctional professionals and "other related stakeholders," implying use across institutions and community corrections contexts where women are served.

Funding for the project was relatively small and targeted, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an expectation of a single award. Eligibility was listed generally as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced but not included in the text provided. Overall, the opportunity was designed to support completion of a specific, practitioner-oriented product in partnership with NIC, building directly on an existing draft rather than starting from scratch.
