AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY FORM
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Miami was awarded a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) the
Compassion Capital Fund Demonstration (CCF) Grant in the amount of $500,000 per year for three (3)
years for the Miami NICE Initiative, a capacity -building program for faith -based and community
organizations in the community.
As a condition of the program design of the Miami NICE Grant, specialized consultants are needed to
meet CCF Grant's five (5) capacity building areas; Community Engagement, Leadership Development,
Organizational Development, Program Development and Revenue Development. Consultants are to
provide services to improve the capacity for Faith -Based and Community organizations to strengthen
their ability to access and manage funds from diverse sources, develop and train staff, expand the types
and reach of social services programs and develop promising collaborations among organizations
dedicated to social service delivery.
Miami NICE has received proposals for Direct Consulting Services for the Miami NICE Initiative
pursuant Miami NICE RFQ 2008-1. The attached list is the highest ranked firms recommended to
provide consulting services.
The first year of the Miami NICE program has been extended. Since year one and year two are running
simultaneously, consultants are needed for two years (November 2008 to September 2010) as the RFQ
process occurred late in the first year of the project.
