*New Opportunity Available for Rural Practitioners*

On behalf of the Bureau of Justice Assistance, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the State Justice Institute, the Institute for Intergovernmental Research is seeking applicants for the?Reaching Rural: Advancing Collaborative Solutions [ [link removed] ]?opportunity.

The hallmark of the?Reaching Rural Initiative [ [link removed] ]?is learning from rural practitioners and facilitating engagement across rural communities. Over the duration of this one-year initiative, the selected individuals and teams will receive coaching and participate in skill-building workshops, as well as virtual and in-person learning experiences.

Participation in the Reaching Rural Initiative includes:


* Travel and per diem costs to participate in an orientation, a field visit to observe the implementation of evidence-informed practices in a rural setting, and a closing session at the end of the 12 months.
* Monthly mentorship and guidance aimed toward local needs.
* Monthly assignments that help participants apply core concepts to the local community or region.
* Access to a diverse network of rural peers, innovative rural communities, and technical assistance providers.
* Formal recognition for completing the planning initiative.

At the conclusion of the planning period, participants will have the opportunity to apply for an implementation grant of up to $100,000 for up to 15 months to launch a project planned during the Reaching Rural fellowship.

BJA is hosting an?informational webinar [ [link removed] ] about this opportunity on November 14, 2023, at 1:00 p.m. ET.?
