Opportunity Information: Apply for 20PR03
The Justice Involved Women: Developing an Agency Wide Approach Curriculum Update and Pilot opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 20PR03) is a National Institute of Corrections (NIC), U.S. Department of Justice, cooperative agreement aimed at updating and piloting a structured training curriculum for justice agencies that serve women. The overall goal is to strengthen an agency-wide approach to policy, practice, and leadership related to women involved in the justice system by training small, cross-functional teams of decision-makers who can drive change when they return to their home organizations.
The program is built as a three-phase, blended learning experience that combines independent pre-work, live instruction, and post-training implementation support. It is designed specifically for teams of three to four participants per agency, typically organizational and agency leaders who develop and implement policy and practice and who also provide leadership, supervision, and direction to staff working with justice-involved women. Rather than training individuals in isolation, the model emphasizes team participation so agencies can leave with a shared framework, a coordinated plan, and internal alignment to carry the work forward.
Phase 1 is completed before the in-person classroom component and focuses on preparing participants for the live training. This phase includes assigned readings, surveys, and online learning activities, and may also incorporate webinars. The intent is to establish a common baseline of knowledge and gather information that can be used to tailor the classroom experience and measure learning needs. Built into the overall program requirements are both program and participant evaluations, meaning the awardee is expected not only to deliver training content but also to assess effectiveness and participant outcomes across the different stages of the curriculum.
Phase 2 is the on-site, classroom-based training delivered over approximately 2.5 days. This portion concentrates on intensive learning, practical application, and team-based planning, with the expectation that participants will translate what they learn into a concrete approach suitable for their agency context. The classroom setting is meant to provide structured instruction and guided collaboration so teams can refine their understanding of an agency-wide strategy and begin shaping an actionable plan.
Phase 3 extends the training into implementation through time-limited, remote coaching sessions. After teams return home, they receive follow-up coaching and support from an assigned faculty coach. The coaching is focused on helping each participant team develop, finalize, and deliver a proposed agency plan to their leadership. This phase is designed to bridge the common gap between training and real-world adoption by providing structured accountability, troubleshooting, and expert guidance while teams work through internal approvals and rollout considerations.
