The Federal Bureau of Prisons, more commonly called BOP, is a federal law enforcement agency operating in the United States Department of Justice that is primarily responsible for the administration of the nation's federal jail system.
The grants and programs of the BOP are all aimed towards the attainment of its general agency mission which is to "protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environments of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, tolerant, cost-efficient, and reasonably secure, and that provide work and other self improvement opportunities to help offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens."
In accordance with this mission, the Federal Bureau of Prisons has just recently constituted the development of the Jail Resource Management: Review and Revision Program wherein it proposes to solicit applications for the revision of its existing Jail Resource Management Training Program.
The present Jail Resource Management Program is mostly attended by sheriffs and several jail administrators. The programme offers a 3-day training course that typically focuses on the resource requirements of a jail, including the development and presentation of a budget request, the resolution of alternative funding options, and the management of a jail's budget.
The Jail Resource Management: Review and Revision Program plans to enhance the current Jail Resource Management Programme in an attempt to maximise the resources of the state's jail centers.
The grant awardees will be asked to work closely with the Federal Bureau of Prisons staff for a project duration of 9 months. So as to be considered deserving, a candidate must be able to manifest expertise in the following areas:
a) The purpose, functions, and operational difficulties of local jails
b) The budget-related concerns in jails
c) The study of jail resource needs
d) The development and presentation of a credible budget request to corresponding governing bodies
e) The resource restrictions that are experienced by various local jails and central authorities.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons is set to administer funding in the amount of of $80,000 to support the implementation of the project.
The establishments and organizations that will be deemed eligible to participate in the Jail Resource Management: Review and Revision Program are the following:
a) State or general unit of local government
b) Non-public agencies
c) Educational institutions
d) Individuals or groups that may manifest expertise in the areas in focus.
All of the institutions and setups mentioned above will be given the opportunity to submit an application under the program as long as they can demonstrate their ability to successfully carry out the activities included in the project.
