Law Advisor/Enforcement Washington, District Of Columbia

Description

Creative Corrections is actively recruiting exceptional candidates to be considered for a Program Advisor position located in Washington, DC. This will be a contract role within the U.S. Department of State. The U.S. Department of State is the lead institution for the conduct of American diplomacy and the Secretary of State is the President’s principal foreign policy advisor. The Department of State’s mission is to advance U.S. national security interests, fight terrorism, protect U.S. interests abroad, and implement foreign policy initiatives that build a freer, prosperous and secure world.

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) keeps Americans safe at home by countering international crime, illegal drugs, and instability abroad. INL helps countries deliver justice and fairness by strengthening their police, courts, and corrections systems. These efforts reduce the amount of crime and illegal drugs reaching U.S. shores.

INL’s Office of Results and Criminal Deterrence (INL/RCD) plays a leadership role in INL, the Department, and the interagency in combating corruption and transnational organized crime internationally, including through management of several anticrime sanctions and deterrence tools. The Anticrime Sanctions and Deterrence Tools Branch implements corruption-related visa restrictions and related sanctions programs, as well as the Narcotics and Transnational Organized Crime Rewards Programs (NRP/TOCRP). INL administers two corruption-related visa denial authorities: Presidential Proclamation 7750 (PP 7750) and the Anti-Kleptocracy Provision in Section 7031(c) of the annual Appropriations Act. These two authorities allow the Department to deny visas to current and former corrupt officials, their corrupt affiliates, and their immediate family members. INL also supports implementation of Executive Order (E.O.) 13818 (entitled “Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption”), which implements the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act of 2016, as well as E.O. 14059 (illicit drugs) and E.O. 13581 (TOC).

This position is contingent upon award of contract for BPA Call.
