Opportunity Information: Apply for INL 17GR0027 EAARMENIA 05 03 2017
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) offered a discretionary funding opportunity called "Programs to Support Correction and Probation Reform in Armenia" (Funding Opportunity Number: INL 17GR0027 EAARMENIA, posted May 3, 2017, with an original closing date of July 2, 2017). The funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government expected to remain actively involved with the recipient during implementation rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The opportunity sat within the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category and was listed under CFDA 19.703. INL anticipated making up to two awards, with each project component carrying a maximum award ceiling of $300,000.
The opportunity was structured around two separate but related components, allowing applicants to propose work in probation reform, corrections reform, or potentially align their expertise with one of the two tracks. The overall aim was practical, capacity-building support for Armenian justice sector institutions, focusing on professionalization, improved management, and the integration of human rights and ethical standards into daily practice.
Component I focused on probation and was aimed at strengthening the Armenian State Probation Service (SPS). INL sought an organization with demonstrated capability and experience to help the SPS develop high-quality training materials and deliver training programming. The emphasis was on creating structured curricula that cover technical skills (the day-to-day tools and methods probation staff need), managerial skills (supervision, planning, performance management, and organizational processes), and cross-cutting standards related to human rights and ethics. A central part of the scope was professional development for both new hires and existing staff through continuing education, signaling an intent to institutionalize onboarding and in-service learning rather than relying on one-time trainings. In practical terms, this component was about building a sustainable training system that can improve staff competence, consistency, and accountability over time.
Component II focused on corrections and targeted institutional support to a women and juvenile prison in Armenia. For this component, INL looked for an organization capable of providing managerial and specialized technical support. While the notice does not list subtopics, the wording points to hands-on assistance that would likely touch the operational and administrative functions of the facility as well as specialized correctional practices relevant to women and youth. The goal, as framed, was not broad infrastructure investment, but expert support that strengthens management and improves specialized services and practices within the prison context.
Eligibility was described broadly as "Others," with additional clarification referenced in the full eligibility text field of the original announcement. Overall, the opportunity reflected INL's reform-oriented approach: targeted technical assistance, professional training and standards development, and institution-level support designed to improve how probation and correctional services function in practice, with a clear emphasis on professionalism, ethics, and human rights.Apply for INL 17GR0027 EAARMENIA 05 03 2017
