Description

Local jurisdictions face a wide variety of challenges when deciding whether to build a new jail. If they make the decision to build, they face further challenges in the planning, construction, and operation of a new jail. The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) Jails Division provides training, technical assistance, and information related to new jail planning. These services address issues such as factors to consider in making the decision to build a new jail; the crucial importance of owner involvement in all phases of the project; and information related to designing, constructing, and occupying the new facility. The NIC Jails Division is seeking one qualified applicant to revise and update the current How to Open a New Institution (HONI) class; administer the delivery of up to twelve classes of Planning of New Institutions (PONI), Managing Jail Design and Construction (MJDC) and HONI classes (not including the pilot class, for a total of 12 classes); and deliver up to four Jail and Justice System Assessments (JJSAs) through technical assistance services to requesting jurisdictions. All technical resource providers (TRPs) must be approved by NIC as qualified instructors and/or JJSA providers.
