The Nevada County Board of Supervisors, through the Adult & Family Services Commission (AFSC), anticipates the authorization of funding to facilitate projects/programs that address the key findings and recommendations identified in the 2020-2021 Community Action Plan through the issuance of Community Initiative Funds (CIF).
The AFSC is soliciting Request for Proposals (RFP) from qualified non-profit applicants, designed to promote the statewide priority of Family Self-Sufficiency identified in the 2020-21 Community Action Plan by mitigating root causes of poverty and ameliorating conditions of extreme poverty, for low-income Nevada County households.
It is estimated that the Community Initiative Funding (CIF) available under this RFP will total $30,000. Funds will be allocated on a one-time only basis to two separate projects at an amount not to exceed $15,000 each; the term of award is July 1, 2020-June 30, 2021. Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations. CIF funds are not intended to provide long-term support for a Program/Project and may not be used to pay for administrative overhead costs, which includes staff and operating costs of the non-profit, or to supplant other funding sources.
