Goals
The goals of this project are to:
- Provide recommendations that can be used to update and create a revised edition of Gender-Responsive Strategies- Research, Practice, and Guiding Principles for Women Offenders.
- Develop a diverse assembly of experts with the potential to become future leaders in carrying on this work pertaining to justice-involved women.
- Encourage the development and implementation of gender-responsive policies, practices, programs, and services for agencies working with justice-involved women.
- Create a better understanding of the negative effects that incarceration under a traditionally male-developed system, operations, and services have on justice-involved women.
Objectives
The program’s overall objectives include the following:
- Explain the concept of being gender responsive.
- Convey that an effective system for women in confinement and under community supervision is structured differently than a system for men under similar circumstances.
- Allow participants to openly identify their perceived challenges or critical operational concerns without judgement.
- Create leadership sustainability to build commitment to continue working with this population.
Funding Information
NIC expects to make one award for as much as $ 75,000.00 for a 12-month project period, beginning on April 3, 2024. Requests for amounts more than a total of 75.000.00, including direct and indirect costs will not be considered.
Eligibility Criteria
- NIC invites applications from nonprofit organizations (including faith-based, community, and tribal organizations), for-profit organizations (including tribal for-profit organizations), and institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions of higher education). Recipients, including for-profit organizations, must agree to waive any profit or fee for services. Foreign governments, international organizations, and non-governmental international organizations/institutions are not eligible to apply.
