Grant Description: Authorized by 42 U.S.C. § 13941, the Comprehensive Approaches to Sex Offender Management Training and Technical Assistance Program focuses on providing training and technical assistance to state, local and tribal jurisdictions for the purpose of developing and implementing strategies to effectively manage sex offenders under community supervision. The recipient of this award will provide targeted training and technical assistance to jurisdictions awarded grants under the FY 2010 Comprehensive Approaches to Sex Offender Management Grant Program. The CASOM Training and Technical Assistance Program provides assistance to jurisdictions in critically examining their existing approaches to managing the population, identifying their most significant gaps and areas of need, and developing specific strategies to address these needs. Additionally, the program provides training and technical assistance to jurisdictions seeking to enhance existing sex offender management programs and practices in communities in order to meet an identified need or gap or to implement an innovative strategy that can be recognized as best practice. The successful applicant will plan and deliver training and technical assistance to ten to twelve award recipients under the CASOM Grant Program. Up to three of the grantee sites will be tribal jurisdictions working to implement a sex offender management program that replicates the Comprehensive Approach model to sex offender management. The remaining grantees will be state or local jurisdictions working to enhance their existing sex offender management programs in order to meet an identified need or gap or to implement a best practice. The successful applicant will be required to measure the effect of the technical assistance as it relates to improving grantee capacity and ability to manage sex offenders in the community. FY 2010 CASOM grantee technical assistance needs may vary considerably. Applicants must be able to address the needs of jurisdictions' sex offender management programs that are in the planning stages as well as programs that have developed a fully operational management model. Additionally, grantee jurisdictions may be a combination of rural, urban or suburban communities and vary in size in terms of population and geography as well as organizational capacity. As a result, applicants must demonstrate: (1) expertise in sex offender management, (2) experience in providing training and technical assistance on research and data driven sex offender management practices and models, in particular, the Comprehensive Approach, (3) substantial experience in conducting assessments of sex offender management programs, (4) experience in providing technical assistance to a wide range of jurisdictions, agencies and disciplines, (5) proficiency in curriculum development and delivery, and (6) knowledge of tribal government and tribal systems.
