The National Institute of Corrections is accepting technical assistance applications for regional, onsite training of the program Evidence-Informed Practices in the Management of Women's Prisons: Technical Assistance.
Correctional senior-level leaders managing women’s prisons face significant challenges regarding gender-informed facility operations, policy and procedure, and the development and implementation of evidence-based programs and services. The 32-hour training is designed with reliable and valid learning modules addressing medical, mental health, legal, communication, and sexual misconduct issues. Participants will engage with relevant strategies for effective change. The training includes interactive material that helps clarify differences while avoiding an over-identification of issues that may be common to male and female populations. Interested agencies should apply through the NIC website under Agency Assistance, no later than February 1, 2027.
As part of the agency application review, completion of a readiness protocol identifying the challenges and the goal of the training request may be required.
