About this opportunity

Brevard County is seeking applications for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Services Program for Fiscal Year 2025/2026, targeting non-profit organizations and public agencies that can provide comprehensive services to county residents. The procurement aims to fund programs that benefit low and moderate-income populations through activities addressing community needs such as youth activities, adult programs, educational initiatives, nutrition services, health services, homeless support, and social/recreational programming. Eligible applicants must submit a detailed application by June 26, 2025, at 10:30 a.m., including one original, eight hard copies, and one electronic copy. The evaluation process will assess submissions based on specific scoring criteria: program description (35 points), program logic model and evaluation plan (50 points), agency financial profile and budget (25 points), and program budget (15 points). Submissions will be reviewed by the Community Development Block Grant Citizen Advisory Board, with the county reserving the right to award contracts to multiple agencies based on evaluation results and funding availability.

Only 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and public agencies serving unincorporated Brevard County and specified municipalities within the Housing and Urban Development Interlocal Agreement are eligible to apply. The procurement has specific organizational restrictions, requiring applicants to serve areas where at least 51% of the population is low to moderate income. The total funding allocation is $207,946.00, with individual grant requests ranging from $25,000 to $50,000 and mandating a 25% match requirement. Organizations are limited to requesting funds for only one program during the 2025/2026 fiscal year. Applicants must provide comprehensive documentation including financial statements, board minutes, insurance certificates, and various compliance forms related to foreign influence and scrutinized company lists. The contract term will be one year, with the county prioritizing programs that demonstrate clear community impact and align with national CDBG objectives of benefiting low-income persons, preventing blight, or addressing urgent community development needs.

An agency cannot request funds for more than one Fiscal Year 2025/2026 program.

It allows for local flexibility in determining needs and developing strategies to address those needs. Community Development Block grants are distributed to areas and agencies that are determined eligible for funding.
