Opportunity Information: Apply for 19CS03

The Dosage Probation White Paper Initiative (Funding Opportunity Number 19CS03) is a continuation funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, National Institute of Corrections (NIC). The key point is that it is not a request for applications and not a competitive solicitation. Instead, it serves as a formal public announcement that NIC intends to provide additional funding to continue an existing, already-established project identified as the Dosage Probation White Paper Initiative under award or project reference 18RCS05GKX8.

This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means NIC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it proceeds, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The activity category is listed as "Other," indicating the work does not fall neatly into a standard pre-labeled program type and should be interpreted in the context of the initiative described in the notice. The relevant CFDA number is 16.602, which aligns with NIC assistance programs.

From a funding and scope standpoint, the announcement indicates an award ceiling of $70,000 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). Because it is a continuation, this typically implies the recipient is predetermined (most often the current awardee or an identified partner already performing under the original initiative), and the purpose is to support ongoing deliverables, refinements, dissemination, or follow-on work connected to the original white paper effort rather than launching a brand-new project open to outside applicants.

Administrative details show the notice was created on February 5, 2019, with an original closing date of February 20, 2019. Even though a closing date is listed, in continuation notices like this the date usually functions more as an administrative milestone for the agency record rather than an invitation for new submissions. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others" with a pointer to additional eligibility text (not included in the excerpt provided), but given the explicit statement that this is not a request for applications, outside organizations should not treat it as an open funding opportunity.

In practical terms, the announcement is best understood as transparency documentation: NIC is signaling that it will obligate funds to continue work already underway on the Dosage Probation White Paper Initiative. Anyone interested in similar work would typically monitor future NIC postings for open solicitations, or review NIC publications and resources related to dosage probation to understand the direction of the field and potential future funding priorities.
