Executive Summary
The U.S. Department of State’s Consulate General Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and U.S. Consulate General Surabaya, Indonesia announces an open competition to implement a program to organizations.

In 2024, trade in goods and services between the United States and ASEAN reached almost $572 billion, supporting over 625,000 American jobs. As a hub for some of the world’s most important manufacturers and shipping routes, Southeast Asia depends on secure, resilient, and diversified supply chains grounded in fair and reciprocal trade practices. President Trump’s America First foreign policy prioritizes secure supply chains that strengthen U.S. economic and national security while advancing cooperation with allies and partners. This is especially important in the critical minerals sector, where the United States is working with regional partners to diversify supply chains in alignment with Executive Order 14154, “Unleashing American Energy.” 

Against this backdrop, the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) will host a regional workshop titled Securing Supply Chains: Market Opportunities in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. U.S. Consulate General Ho Chi Minh City and U.S. Consulate General Surabaya seek proposals to design and implement a four-day workshop in Vietnam and Indonesia for up to 55 ASEAN leaders ages 22–35 occurring in May 2027. Vietnam and Indonesia represent two of the most promising markets for increased commercial cooperation with the United States and bring complementary expertise in critical minerals (Indonesia) and in integrated and resilient supply chains (Vietnam). 

Participants will examine supply chain resilience, critical minerals, and emerging technologies such as blockchain and AI through case studies, interactive exercises, and collaborative problem- solving. The program will equip early-stage professionals with practical skills to strengthen regional supply chains, support informed investment decisions, and advance U.S. and Southeast Asian prosperity and security.

Advancing Behavioral Health in Corrections: Training and Policy Innovation Initiative

No Applicants // Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 1

Limiting Language
Only one (1) application will be accepted from a submitting organization.

Executive Summary
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) acknowledges the pressing challenges facing behavioral health care within correctional settings nationwide. Correctional facilities increasingly contend with complex mental health and substance use issues among incarcerated individuals, yet existing behavioral health services are consistently limited by service gaps, inconsistent institutional policies, and insufficient staff training, as revealed through research and dialogue with NIC’s Mental Health Network. These shortcomings jeopardize the rehabilitation and well- being of those in custody, while also causing elevated staff stress, burnout, and organizational instability. 

Through this cooperative agreement, NIC will launch a comprehensive initiative to address these systemic concerns. The project will encompass an in-depth gap analysis of behavioral health services, a rigorous review of institutional policies to ensure alignment with national standards, and robust stakeholder engagement to inform program development. Input from corrections professionals and behavioral health experts will play a pivotal role in shaping project strategies and solutions.

A primary outcome of these efforts will be the creation of a dynamic behavioral health training e-course designed for correctional staff. This curriculum will draw on evidence-based best practices—including trauma-informed care, cognitive-behavioral techniques, medication-assisted treatment for substance use disorders, and crisis intervention strategies. By equipping staff with practical, accessible tools rooted in the realities of correctional work, the initiative will enhance staff skills, foster professional development and wellness, and ultimately contribute to a safer and more stable correctional environment.
