About this opportunity

The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is seeking proposals for a cooperative agreement to strengthen the regulatory framework of the juvenile justice system in El Salvador. The purpose is to assist stakeholders in drafting a National Juvenile Justice Policy, help the National Council for Infancy, Childhood, and Adolescence (CONAPINA) create rehabilitation and reinsertion policies and procedures, and improve coordination between CONAPINA and juvenile court judges to propose legal reforms supporting rehabilitative programs. Eligible applicants include U.S. and foreign non-profit/non-governmental organizations and educational institutions. INL will evaluate proposals based on factors such as approach, experience, management, and monitoring and evaluation plans. The deadline for submitting proposals is July 10, 2024.

The total funding available for this 24-month project is $700,000. INL expects the project to contribute to any ongoing juvenile justice reform process in El Salvador by reducing juvenile recidivism rates and restoring community integrity. The place of performance will be focused on El Salvador, with activities occurring at relevant government agencies and institutions involved in the juvenile justice system.

Update #2 · Latest ·

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit proposals that implement elements from INL El Salvador's roadmap to strengthen restorative and rehabilitative justice in El Salvador's juvenile justice system, reduce juvenile recidivism rates, and restore community integrity. The purpose of this project is to strengthen the regulatory framework of the juvenile justice system in conjunction with key stakeholders (the First Lady's office, CONAPINA, the Supreme Court, the Attorney's General Office, the Public Defender's Office, the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Labor, Ministry of Health, and Ministry of Governance). Proposals should include activities to assist stakeholders in drafting a National Juvenile Justice Policy, assist CONAPINA in creating regulations, policies, and SOPs to effectively manage youth in conflict with the law (YICL), and help CONAPINA and juvenile judges improve coordination and work together to propose legal reforms that support rehabilitative programs for adolescents. Activities should increase shared understanding among key stakeholders, institutionalize rehabilitation programs for adolescents, and promote juvenile court judges applying more alternative sentencing options.
