Opportunity Information: Apply for 24PR11
The Leadership Essentials for Sustainability Curriculum Update (Funding Opportunity Number 24PR11) is a National Institute of Corrections (NIC) cooperative agreement aimed at updating and refreshing an existing leadership training curriculum that was originally developed in 2017. The current course is a 16-hour, instructor-led, site-based program that has been repeatedly requested through NIC technical assistance, largely because it focuses on the practical "people-side" of leadership. Rather than emphasizing operational or technical corrections content, the course is designed around the soft skills and behavioral competencies leaders need to effectively guide teams, influence organizational culture, and help agencies sustain improvements over time.
At its core, this opportunity supports work that strengthens a customizable leadership curriculum covering topics that can be adjusted to fit the needs of a specific agency or organization. Example subject areas include building effective teams, strategic delegation, ethics and integrity, leading and managing change, understanding and shaping institutional culture, and improving communication. A central theme is helping participants develop a clearer leadership philosophy while practicing real-world leadership behaviors such as empathy, trust-building, and active listening. The program is intended to move participants toward competency-based leadership growth, positioning them to become stronger supervisors and, over time, part of their organization’s next generation of leaders.
NIC expects to make one award under this opportunity, with an award ceiling of $175,000. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means NIC expects to be actively involved during the period of performance (for example, through collaboration, feedback, approvals, or other substantial programmatic involvement), rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The opportunity falls under CFDA 16.601 and is categorized as "Other" for both the opportunity and activity category.
Eligibility is fairly broad within the United States. NIC invites applications from nonprofit organizations (including faith-based, community-based, tribal organizations), for-profit organizations (including tribal for-profits), and institutions of higher education (including tribal colleges and universities). A key condition is that recipients, including for-profit entities, must agree to waive any profit or fee for services, meaning the work must be performed on a cost-only basis rather than generating profit. Applicants must be able to document eligibility, including proof of 501(c)(3) status from the IRS for nonprofits or an authorizing tribal resolution for tribal entities. Foreign governments, international organizations, and international nongovernmental organizations are not eligible.
NIC also allows collaborative applications that involve multiple entities, but the structure has to be clear: one eligible organization must serve as the primary applicant and take full responsibility for administering the award, managing the project, and overseeing any partner organizations. Other participating entities may be included as subrecipients, but NIC will hold the lead applicant accountable for overall performance and compliance. NIC will accept only one application per submitting organization, so applicants need to consolidate internal efforts into a single submission rather than submitting competing proposals.
Key dates and administrative details include a creation date of March 14, 2024, and an original application closing date of May 13, 2024. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted investment in modernizing an established leadership development course so that it continues to meet the needs of corrections agencies seeking stronger, more sustainable leadership capacity, especially in the areas of communication, ethical decision-making, team performance, and change leadership.Apply for 24PR11
