About this opportunity

The Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance is seeking a training and technical assistance (TTA) provider to bolster state correctional agencies' capacity to use data to inform policy and operational decision making. The initiative will provide both dedicated, agency-specific assistance via a cohort of embedded data analysts in up to ten correctional agencies for one year, as well as in-depth training and other resources for corrections analysts nationwide. The goal is to help corrections leaders, staff, and stakeholders unlock the power of data to improve efficiency, effectiveness, and outcomes in corrections.

This funding opportunity is part of the Justice Reinvestment Initiative, which aims to improve state and local criminal justice systems through data-driven policy analysis and implementation of evidence-based practices. Recent awards under this program have ranged from approximately $500,000 to $2.5 million over 2-3 year periods, with projects typically performed at the state or local level. The deadline to apply for this opportunity is March 12, 2025.
