| Description: | The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is soliciting proposals from organizations, groups, or individuals to enter into a cooperative agreement for a 12-month period to begin in May, 2009. Work under this agreement will continue NICs Norval Morris Project. Dr. Morris was instrumental in creating NIC over 30 years ago and remained a guiding influence as a charter member of the NIC Advisory Board until the day he passed away in February 2004. Shortly after his death, the NIC Advisory Board created the Norval Morris project to honor his many contributions to the field and carry on the sprit of his work.
Dr. Morris believed that a major shortcoming in correctional policy and practice was that the field did not make effective use of the available research and evaluation. Among his keenest interests was the issue of effective dissemination. He used research findings to inform the field and promote greater collaboration. At its heart, the Norval Morris Project is about developing models and executing strategies for expediting the circulation of research-based innovations, knowledge, and ideas by addressing specific topics of vital concern to the field of corrections. |
