Opportunity Information: Apply for 19CS12
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC), within the U.S. Department of Justice, issued a public notice describing its intent to make a single, non-competitive award for a project titled "Implementation for A Framework for Pretrial Justice Essential Elements" (Funding Opportunity Number 19CS12). The notice is explicit that it is not a request for applications and should not be read as an open solicitation. Instead, it functions as a transparency announcement that NIC plans to fund specific activities through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means NIC expects to play an active role in the project beyond simply providing funds. In practice, cooperative agreements often involve substantial federal involvement such as collaborative planning, ongoing coordination, review of deliverables, and joint problem-solving during implementation. The award is categorized as discretionary and is listed under CFDA 16.601, a funding stream associated with NIC's correctional leadership, assistance, and training efforts. The activity category is labeled "Other," implying the work does not fit neatly into a standard program type and would be clarified in the full internal project description or accompanying documentation.
Financially, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $35,000, with one expected award. This indicates a relatively small, targeted project rather than a large-scale multi-site initiative. The original posting date is August 1, 2019, with an original closing date of August 9, 2019, which is consistent with notices that are meant to satisfy public notice requirements rather than to support an extended competitive application period. The short window reinforces that this is essentially a pre-award announcement rather than an invitation for new proposals.
The project focus, as reflected in the title, is implementation support tied to a "Framework for Pretrial Justice Essential Elements." In general terms, pretrial justice frameworks address how jurisdictions make decisions and manage practices from arrest through the pretrial period, including risk-based decision-making, court appearance support, supervision conditions, data-driven policy, and coordination among courts, jail administrators, pretrial services, prosecutors, defense counsel, and community partners. By emphasizing "essential elements," the project likely centers on putting recognized foundational components into practice, helping agencies translate a framework into operational steps such as policies, workflows, training, stakeholder engagement, and performance measurement. Even without additional narrative in the notice, the wording suggests hands-on technical assistance or implementation guidance rather than pure research.
Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with the expectation that the detailed eligibility rationale would be contained in the agency's additional eligibility text field or internal justification. Since the award is intended to be made without full and open competition, this often corresponds to a planned selection of a specific organization based on unique expertise, continuity with existing work, a sole-source justification, or a compelling programmatic need that the agency determines cannot be met as effectively through a competitive process.
In short, this announcement serves as a formal public notice that NIC planned to fund one cooperative agreement, up to $35,000, to support implementation activities related to core, essential elements of a pretrial justice framework. It is not an open grant competition and was not designed to solicit applications from the general public, but rather to document NIC's intention to proceed with a directed award under discretionary authority.Apply for 19CS12
