Opportunity Information: Apply for 21AC01
The "Thinking for a Change Facilitator Training" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 21AC01) is a Department of Justice, National Institute of Corrections (NIC) announcement that serves only as a public notice about continued funding under an existing cooperative agreement. It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning NIC is not soliciting new proposals, not opening a competitive application process, and not inviting new applicants to apply for these funds.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized under an "Other" opportunity category and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument type. A cooperative agreement typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities, such as coordinating deliverables, providing guidance, or collaborating on implementation, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The funding activity category is also listed as "Other," with the expectation that further clarification would normally appear in the related explanation field.
The notice references the continuation of funding for a specific existing award: cooperative agreement 19AC01GLA2. In practical terms, that means the funds are intended for the current recipient associated with that award, rather than for new organizations. While the listing includes an "Eligible Applicants" field marked as "Others," the key limiting factor here is the statement that it is not an application announcement and is tied to a continuation of a named award, so eligibility is effectively constrained to the incumbent awardee.
The opportunity was created on February 26, 2021, and shows an original closing date of March 17, 2021. In many continuation notices like this, the closing date functions more as a posting lifecycle date in the system rather than a deadline for new submissions, since no applications are being accepted. The award information indicates an award ceiling of $120,000 and an expectation of one award, reinforcing that this is a single, continuation-funded action rather than a competitive multi-award grant program. The associated CFDA number is 16.601, which corresponds to NIC programs.
In short, this posting is best understood as a transparency and recordkeeping notice: NIC is continuing funding (up to $120,000) for one existing cooperative agreement tied to Thinking for a Change Facilitator Training, and it is not an open funding opportunity for new applicants.Apply for 21AC01
