This is a cost proposal template for the Disability Emergency Management Advisory Council Facilitator position, prepared for submission to an unspecified government agency. The template is designed to capture staffing costs and budget allocation across program and administrative categories. The document includes sections for recording staff positions (including Full-Time Equivalent allocations), monthly and annual salary and benefits costs, and the number of client-families served.

The cost proposal template defines program costs as expenses directly related to service delivery as described in the Request for Proposals, including salaries and benefits of service-delivery staff and materials acquired for service provision.

The template includes calculation fields for subtotals by category and total contract budgets, with an automated percentage calculation to determine the allocation between administrative and program costs. All cost fields in the provided sample are blank (showing $0 values), indicating this is a blank template awaiting completion by prospective bidders submitting proposals for the Disability Emergency Management Advisory Council Facilitator contract.
