Opportunity Information: Apply for 23JD01
The National Sheriffs' Institute: Expansion and Delivery grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 23JD01) is a Department of Justice initiative administered through the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) to support the continued expansion and delivery of the National Sheriffs' Institute (NSI). NSI is positioned as an executive leadership training program specifically tailored to sheriffs, recognizing that there are more than 3,000 sheriffs across the United States and that sheriff's offices function as complex, multi-mission organizations with broad operational and community-facing responsibilities.
The opportunity is built around the idea that the office of sheriff carries significant authority and influence, particularly within local criminal justice systems and the communities sheriffs serve. The description highlights the scope of sheriffs' operational roles, including jail administration, patrol services, court security, civil process, transportation, and criminal investigations. It also emphasizes that sheriffs increasingly operate in environments where they must lead through public discussions related to justice, equity, and accountability. Beyond traditional enforcement and custody responsibilities, sheriffs are also expected to convene and collaborate with diverse community stakeholders while balancing public safety demands with the need to provide healthcare and treatment services, especially in jail settings.
This funding is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NIC expects substantial involvement during the period of performance, such as collaboration on planning, delivery, refinement of curriculum, or coordination of training logistics. The activity category is listed as "Other," reflecting a specialized leadership development and training focus rather than a conventional program service category. The associated CFDA number is 16.601, tying it to NIC's assistance programs.
In practical terms, the award supports the delivery of executive-level training designed to strengthen sheriffs' leadership capacity both as organizational executives and as civic leaders. The NSI model, as described, aims to equip sheriffs to manage essential aspects of running their offices, which can include personnel leadership, organizational strategy, risk management, interagency coordination, community engagement, and navigating evolving expectations around accountability and equitable justice outcomes.
The funding opportunity was created on December 5, 2022, with an original application closing date of February 3, 2023. NIC anticipated making a single award with an award ceiling of $400,000, signaling a competitive selection intended to fund one provider or lead organization capable of operating or scaling NSI programming at a national level. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement, which generally suggests that qualified organizations with relevant training, corrections, or leadership development capacity could apply, depending on the specific constraints in NIC's eligibility language.
Overall, this opportunity focuses on strengthening the leadership infrastructure supporting sheriffs nationwide by funding the expansion and delivery of NSI executive training, with the broader goal of improving how sheriffs lead complex agencies, manage jail and public safety responsibilities, and engage communities on high-stakes issues in the criminal justice landscape.Apply for 23JD01
