The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is offering this grant to support the development of critical tools for offender employment retention. This grant is for the purpose of fostering successful reintegration by equipping individuals and organizations with the means to prevent job loss among offenders. Specifically, the NIC seeks proposals for an eighteen-month cooperative agreement to create a competency-based curriculum designed to train Employment Retention Specialists. Concurrently, the grant requires the development of an assessment instrument capable of identifying both the strengths and potential risks of offenders who are in danger of losing their jobs. This initiative aims to enhance job stability for this vulnerable population, ultimately reducing recidivism and promoting public safety.
