Community Initiative Funding Fiscal Year 2019/20
The Nevada County Adult & Family Services Commission announces a Request for Funding (RFF) for the Nevada County Community Initiative Funding (CIF). These funds will allow local non-profit agencies an opportunity to provide services that will enhance the priorities set forth by the Community Services Block Grant Community Action Plan (CSBG CAP).
A total of $30,000 in Community Initiative Funding (CIF) has been allocated to support two separate, one-time only funded projects subject to the Nevada County Board of Supervisors’ approval and fiscal resources.
Funding requests are for fiscal year July 1, 2019 – June 30, 2020. The maximum funds available will be $15,000 per project. These funds have been allocated to support two separate, one-time-only funded projects subject to the Nevada County Board of Supervisors’ approval and fiscal resources. These funds are NOT intended to provide long-term support of a program and are not to be used to pay for administrative overhead costs, which includes staff and operating cost of the non-profit, or supplant other funding sources. Funding priorities are aligned and set forth by the Community Services Block Grant Community Action Plan (CSBG CAP).
CIF funding must be targeted to very low-income residents, (See ATTACHMENT E – 2019 CSBG Poverty Guidelines are to be used to determine the targeted population). Proposals must meet the priority objectives outlined in the CSBG CAP. The CSBG CAP priorities are listed below and may be found at: https://www.mynevadacounty.com/ArchiveCenter/ViewFile/Item/697 .
Awards will be prioritized for funding proposals that provide services in one of the following areas as identified in the County of Nevada’s CSBG CAP priorities.
- Food/Nutrition
- Transportation
- Safe & Stable Affordable Housing
- Access to Mainstream Benefits
