Opportunity Information: Apply for INL22CA0025 WHPMEX JUVTRNG 01242022

The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), is offering a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity for organizations to design and deliver a juvenile corrections management training curriculum for Mexico. Managed through INL at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico, the project sits within INL/Mexico's broader prison program, which focuses on strengthening the Government of Mexico's ability to run safer, more effective correctional systems at the federal, state, and municipal levels. A central motivation behind the program is reducing the influence and operational capacity of transnational criminal organizations inside penitentiaries by improving professional management, oversight, and institutional practices.

The specific purpose of this grant is to raise the professional standards of Mexican prison officials who work in juvenile facilities by building their management competencies in line with international standards and recognized best practices. The selected applicant is expected to develop curricula that equip juvenile correctional officials with practical knowledge, skills, and abilities to manage juvenile correctional institutions more effectively. The intended outcomes include improved institutional management and operations, reduced juvenile recidivism, and better prospects for successful reintegration of youth after release, reflecting an emphasis on rehabilitation as well as security and control.

A core deliverable is the development and delivery of at least 20 training courses tailored to Mexico's context and legal framework. This tailoring requirement signals that the program is not meant to be generic or purely theoretical; it should reflect how juvenile justice and corrections function in Mexico, including applicable laws, procedures, and institutional realities. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial involvement from INL during implementation, such as coordination on course design priorities, sequencing, delivery logistics, and alignment with program goals in Mexico.

Administratively, the opportunity is listed as "Juvenile Correctional Institution Management Training Course Development" under funding opportunity number INL22CA0025 WHPMEX JUVTRNG 01242022, with CFDA number 19.703 and an activity category of Law, Justice and Legal Services. It was posted January 24, 2022, with an original closing date of March 11, 2022. The award ceiling is $500,000, and INL anticipated making up to three awards. Eligibility is broadly indicated as "Others," with additional clarification expected in the full eligibility section of the notice.
