The Augusta, Georgia Housing and Community Development Department is seeking qualified firms to provide community outreach, education, and referral services to support the implementation of a $4,026,668.54 lead hazard reduction grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The selected firm will be required to have experience in community consortium building, outreach, and providing services to low-income families in the Augusta-Richmond County area. Key deliverables include monthly reporting on outreach and referral activities, collaborating with the program and community agencies to organize neighborhood resource fairs, and partnering with local agencies to increase awareness and participation in the lead hazard reduction program. Responses to the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) are due by Monday, November 27, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. via a ZOOM virtual meeting, and the term of the contract will be four years with an option to extend for one additional year.

The RFQ does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The document also does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it mention any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not provide any specific award values or budget ranges, but the $4,026,668.54 lead hazard reduction grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development suggests a significant budget for the community outreach services.
