Opportunity Information: Apply for 22JD15

The Department of Justice, through the National Institute of Corrections (NIC), issued a public notice titled "Child Friendly Family Visiting Spaces in Jails and Prisons" under Funding Opportunity Number 22JD15. The notice was created on January 26, 2022, and listed an original closing date of February 16, 2022. The total funding available is capped at $100,000, with NIC expecting to make one award. The assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with this effort is 16.601.

This notice is explicitly not a Request for Applications (RFA). Instead of inviting multiple applicants to compete, NIC is announcing its intention to fund specific project activities without full and open competition. In practical terms, that means the agency is signaling a planned award through a non-competitive process rather than running a standard competitive grant cycle where organizations submit proposals for review against each other. These kinds of notices are often used when an agency has a particular partner or project approach in mind, or when there is a justification for limiting competition under applicable federal grant and procurement rules.

The funding instrument for this effort is a cooperative agreement. Compared with a typical grant, a cooperative agreement generally implies that NIC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, such as collaborating on project design, providing ongoing input, coordinating stakeholders, reviewing deliverables, or otherwise working closely with the recipient during the period of performance.

The opportunity category and activity category are both listed as "Other," with a note that further clarification would normally appear in the related explanatory fields. Eligibility is also broadly labeled as "Others," again indicating that the detailed eligibility requirements would be provided in the additional eligibility information field. The listing does not provide those extra details in the excerpt provided, but it does clearly identify the awarding agency (U.S. Department of Justice, National Institute of Corrections) and the basic award parameters (one cooperative agreement up to $100,000).

Based on the title, the purpose of the project is centered on improving or supporting the development of child-friendly family visiting spaces within jail and prison settings. While the notice does not spell out the specific activities, projects under this theme typically focus on making visitation environments safer, less intimidating, and more developmentally appropriate for children, with the broader goal of supporting family connections during incarceration. The key takeaway, however, is procedural: this announcement serves mainly as a transparency notice that NIC intends to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award for project activities related to child-friendly visiting spaces, rather than opening a competitive application process.
