4-Exhibit A - Responsiveness Checklist - TDHCA.docx

This is a Responsiveness Checklist document from the City of Dallas Office of Housing and Community Empowerment for the Youth Homeless and Housing Services Program funded through the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA). The City is soliciting applications from nonprofit organizations and community organizations to serve as a subrecipient administrator providing services to unaccompanied youth and young adults aged twenty-four years and younger. Eligible supportive services include case management, emergency shelter, street outreach, and transitional living. The successful applicant will enter into a subrecipient agreement with a term not to exceed twelve months, contingent upon funding availability from TDHCA.

The checklist establishes mandatory submission requirements for proposals to be deemed responsive, including application materials submitted through Bonfire, organization information and documentation, program budget, organization chart for the entire agency and program team, federal tax-exempt status letter, articles of incorporation, most recent audit financial statements with audit report, single or program-specific audit if applicable, IRS Form 990, board of directors composition, and three past board minutes. Failure to include any single item will result in the proposal being classified as non-responsive and ineligible for funding consideration. Proposers will receive written notification of non-responsiveness determinations.
