SUMMARY:
The Department of Justice, National Institute of Corrections (NIC) announces an extension of the closing date and change in requirements and funding to the notice of a solicitation for a cooperative agreement in Fiscal Year 2001 for “Executive Leadership Training for Women” which was printed in the May 1, 2001 edition (Volume 66, Number 84).
Change in Requirement and Funding: The closing date is extended to June 22, 2001. The change in the closing date eliminates the requirement of attendance at the June 20-24, 2001 class at the Searles Castle and is substituted with the requirement to attend a minimum of two days of a class at the Searles Castle during the week of July 30-August 3, 2001. An additional funding amount of $50,000 is added to the agreement to assure adequate resources to implement an evaluation component of the program. Note that the applicant is not required to fully develop the model within the application but must demonstrate a willingness to work in collaboration with the recipient of the current cooperative agreement “Assessment and Impact of Executive Leadership Training for Women.” Some possible evaluation models however may be suggested or discussed. It is anticipated that additional multi-year funding will be available to enhance the evaluation component. Applicants may request a copy of the current program's participant manual by contacting Andie Moss through email or phone as listed below.
