SUBJECT: FY 2020 Community Based Program RFP Process
On February 28, 2019, the Police Department will release the CCPD FY 2020 Community Based Programs Request for Proposals (RFP). This year’s RFP was updated to comply with feedback from FY19 Selection Committee members who were appointed by the CCPD Board of Directors. As a result, responses will be more concise and the process will begin 1-month earlier in order to more closely match the public school year. These adjustments were made in order to facilitate broader participation by the Selection Committee. In order to comply with the new schedule, nominations for the Selection Committee need to be received to Jack Dale (jack.dale@fortworthtexas.gov) in the Purchasing Department by Friday, March 22 nd . Members of the CCPD Board of Directors should send the name and telephone number of their representative in an email so that staff can coordinate the Selection Committee schedule with each nominee and ensure greater participation by the Committee, a goal of this year’s process.

As in previous years, programs addressing prevention or intervention of youth and family violence and/or have a focus that incorporates literacy instruction or skills for children ages 0-9 will be given priority consideration through additional points in the scoring process.
