County: All Counties
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 05/23/2023
Size of the Grant: $100,000
Grant Duration: 12 months
Details:
The purpose of this solicitation is the development of outreach modalities to inform agencies about the Women’s Risk and Need Assessment (WRNA) and ultimately engage them to submit teams to then be trained in its implementation and application.
This solicitation is to develop deliverables that will inform interested agencies about the development of and requirements for the implementation of the Women’s Risk and Need Assessment (WRNA); provide instruction to accepted project teams on the implementation and ongoing application of the WRNA; and support and provide coaching to agencies and teams on the ongoing use of the WRNA.
Goals
The goals of this cooperative agreement are to:
- Develop deliverables, including outreach methods, so that agencies viewing the WRNA overview have been provided sufficient information to apply to send teams to the virtual training on WRNA implementation.
- Carry out deliverables so that agency teams accepted to the NIC training begin the process of implementing the WRNA in their agency.
Objectives
The awardee will:
- Meet with designated NIC staff to develop a work plan and timeline to meet each of the deliverables to the satisfaction of NIC.
- Ensure that the video and other outreach modalities provide information sufficient so that viewers will have an understanding of the purpose, development, implementation requirements, and application of the WRNA. This information will assist them in looking internally at their resources and agency capacity and deciding whether to submit a team application from their agency to be trained virtually in implementation of the WRNA.
- Ensure the materials developed to provide training on the WRNA meet the needs of NIC and the agency teams.
- Ensure that the delivery of the WRNA training meets the needs of NIC and the agency teams.
