The Program to Improve Capacity and Capability (PICC) is being launched by the City of Norfolk in hopes of broadening an inclusive and diverse field of nonprofit service providers with the ability to deliver quality social services to Norfolk residents and the capacity to compete for, and sustainably manage, grant awards while meeting compliance requirements.
Donor Name: City of Norfolk
State: Virginia
City: Norfolk

Details:
This (PICC) Request for Proposals (RFP) is for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023. Approximately $2 million in grant funds are anticipated to be available annually over the three-year lifespan of the PICC program. Grants will be awarded to organizations in three different classifications through a competitive process. This, Tier One RFP is applicable to organizations with annual cash expenditures of $250,000 or more. While selected awardees will receive a one-year grant for FY 2023, the City has the option to extend the Term of the agreement for two successive one-year terms based on performance and funding availability.
In addition to expanding the community of non-profit service providers, the primary goal of the PICC program is to advance City Council’s priorities in the areas of rapid rehousing with case management, positive youth development programming and senior focused activities. Specifically, to provide direct services to Norfolk’s at-risk populations of children, families, the elderly and disabled residents, those who are impoverished and those experiencing homelessness.
