RFI for Executive Leadership Training for Women Facilities Services

The District of Columbia Department of Corrections is seeking information to identify vendors capable of providing executive leadership training for women facilities services. The agency needs a customized curriculum designed specifically for incarcerated women that incorporates trauma-informed principles in correctional communication and management leadership strategies. This initiative aims to address the unique communication dynamics of women, recognize trauma triggers, support trauma survivors, and build a culture of safety within correctional environments. The requested scope of work covers the design and delivery of training that addresses responsiveness to the needs of women, trauma-informed communication, and trauma-informed leadership strategies. The curriculum must also incorporate elements focused on the sexual safety of the incarcerated population, data-informed leadership, and cultural considerations for special populations. The selected vendor must perform all work offsite at their own office location. Eligible respondents must be onshore organizations based entirely in the United States. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine budget requirements and has not disclosed a specific funding limit. The source document does not specify evaluation criteria or key dates for this request for information.
