Gender Informed Management of Women in Confinement

Agency: National Institute of Corrections

16.601 -- Corrections Training and Staff Development

Archived opportunityLast Updated: May 13, 2026

Description

As a center of learning, innovation, and leadership that shapes and advances effective correctional practice and public policy, NIC is a vital partner in planning, developing, delivering, and supporting training focused on gender-responsive approaches to working with justice-involved women. NIC training helps correctional staff address the significant challenges they face regarding gender-informed facility operations, policies and procedures, and the development and implementation of evidence-based programs and services that meet women’s needs. The growth of knowledge about the types of women who may need to be considered in an agency’s response to women and the management strategies that may be most effective for working with this population has also led to advancements in training.

This solicitation is for a proposal to enter into a 12-month cooperative agreement to coordinate and deliver two trainings each of Gender-Informed Practices in the Management of Women’s Prisons and Justice-Involved Women: Developing an Agencywide Approach, two training programs that address the importance of gender-responsive intervention in a correctional facility.
