New Jail Planning Initiative

The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is continuing its Cooperative Agreement for the New Jail Planning Initiative, aimed at revising Jail and Justice System materials and providing technical assistance. This initiative includes pilot testing new materials and final editing of drafts, which are crucial for enhancing jail planning and operations. The total estimated funding for this program is $350,000, with a single award expected, and the application process is not open as this announcement serves as a continuation notice. Interested parties can reach out to Cameron D. Coblentz at ccoblentz@bop.gov or by phone at 202-514-0053 for further information, with a close date for this opportunity set for March 27, 2026.
