The City of Spokane's Accounting and Grants Department is offering a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) to support childcare organizations. This grant program aims to expand services for nontraditional childcare hours within the City of Spokane. The primary mission of this initiative is to address the unmet need for expanded childcare services, particularly for those working outside of traditional hours, and to support the community by fostering accessible childcare options. The target beneficiaries of this grant are childcare organizations, both public/private non-profits and private for-profits, that are located and registered within the City of Spokane. The impact goal is to provide "last-in capital dollars" to facilitate construction projects or the expansion of existing facilities. This expansion must specifically lead to increased services for nontraditional childcare hours, benefiting families and children who require care during evenings, weekends, or other non-standard times. The program prioritizes organizations that demonstrate a clear need for capital projects to expand services, can show an unmet need among their target clientele, and have a proven history of serving historically marginalized communities. Fiscal responsibility, evidenced through robust policies and procedures, is also a key focus. The grant seeks to ensure that funding is directed towards organizations that are not only capable of expanding services but also operate with sound financial management. The expected outcome is the successful completion of construction or expansion projects that directly result in increased availability of nontraditional childcare hours within Spokane. Measurable results will be tied to the number of new or expanded childcare slots created and the subsequent increase in access to childcare for families requiring nontraditional hours. The City of Spokane's strategic priority through this grant is to enhance community well-being by improving access to essential childcare services, thereby supporting working families and contributing to the economic stability and growth of the city. The underlying theory of change is that by providing targeted capital funding, the city can stimulate the expansion of crucial childcare infrastructure, directly addressing a critical community need and fostering greater equity in access to care. Funds must be contracted before December 31, 2024, with program completion by September 30, 2026. The grant offers up to $500,000 per project, serving as "last dollars" to help finalize construction efforts. Applicants are also required to follow the City of Spokane Procurement guidelines.

The City of Vallejo received American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to establish a grant program aimed at supporting local small businesses severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. This initiative directly aligns with the city's commitment to economic recovery and resilience, seeking to mitigate the negative financial repercussions experienced by its business community. The program's core mission is to provide crucial financial assistance, specifically targeting security improvements, thereby fostering a safer and more stable operating environment for eligible businesses within Vallejo. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are for-profit and non-profit brick-and-mortar businesses situated in Vallejo. To qualify, businesses must possess a valid Vallejo business license, employ 20 or fewer individuals, and provide receipts for purchases made between January 1, 2023, and September 24, 2024. The program's impact goals are focused on enhancing the physical security of these businesses, thereby reducing vulnerability to crime and creating a more secure commercial landscape. The program prioritizes funding for security improvements, with grants available up to $3,000 for items such as cameras, locks, and window enhancements. This focus addresses a critical need for small businesses that may lack the resources to invest in such protective measures independently. The expected outcomes include a tangible increase in the security infrastructure of participating businesses, leading to a safer environment for employees, customers, and business assets. Measurable results will be directly tied to the utilization of grant funds for approved security upgrades. Success will be determined by the number of businesses receiving grants, the types of security improvements implemented, and potentially, a reduction in reported incidents related to security vulnerabilities among grant recipients. The City of Vallejo's strategic priority through this program is to strengthen its local economy by supporting its small business sector, recognizing that a resilient business community is vital for overall city prosperity and recovery from the pandemic's economic downturn. The underlying theory of change is that by providing targeted financial aid for essential security enhancements, the city can empower small businesses to protect their assets, maintain operations, and contribute to the broader economic stability and revitalization of Vallejo.
