I. WHEREAS, the parties wish to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and
conditions relating to the use of the Grant.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises of the parties contained herein and
other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficient of which is hereby acknowledged, the
SEOPW CRA and Grantee agree as follows:
1. RECITALS. The Recitals to this Agreement are true and correct and are incorporated herein
by referenced and made a part hereof.
2. GRANT. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and Grantee's compliance with
all of its obligations hereunder, the SEOPW CRA hereby agrees to make available to the Grantee the Grant to
be used for the purpose and disbursed in the manner hereinafter provided.
3. USE OF GRANT. The Grant shall be used to underwrite costs associated with the Program, in
accordance with the scope of work in Exhibit "B" and the budget in Exhibit "C", attached hereto and incorporated
herein. The SEOPW CRA is not obligated to expend additional funds beyond the approved grant amount.
4. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date written above and
shall terminate on September 30th, 2024, from the Effective Date or earlier as provided for herein, whichever
occurs first. However, the following rights of the SEOPW CRA shall survive the expiration or early termination
of this Agreement: to audit or inspect; to require reversion of assets; to enforce representations, warranties, and
certifications; to exercise entitlement to remedies, limitation of liability, indemnification, and recovery of fees
and costs.
5. DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT.
a. GENERALLY. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the
SEOPW CRA shall make available to Grantee up to Four Hundred Thirty -Seven Thousand Six Hundred Twelve
Dollars and Seventy -Three Cents ($437,612.73). In no event shall payments to Grantee under this Agreement
exceed Four Hundred Thirty -Seven Thousand Six Hundred Twelve Dollars and Seventy Three Cents ($437,612.73).
Payments shall be made to the Grantee or directly to vendors on behalf of Grantee, only after receipt and
approval of requests for disbursements.
b. DEPOSIT OF GRANT FUNDS INTO SEPARATE CHECKING ACCOUNT. A
separate checking account must be created for the sole purpose of depositing SEOPW CRA grant funds, prior
to the disbursement of any grant funds. Said account shall not be used to deposit funds from other funding
sources or to make payments other than to transfer funds to the Grantee's general operating checking account.
c. ESTABLISH STANDALONE PAYROLL ACCOUNT. Grantee shall establish, set-
up, and maintain a standalone payroll account with an outsourced payroll company prior to the disbursement
of any grant funds.
d. DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT FUNDS. All requests for the disbursement of grant
funds by the Grantee shall be approved, certified, and signed by the Grantee's Executive Director and either the
President or Vice -President of the Board of Directors prior to being submitted to the SEOPW CRA for
processing prior to the termination of this Agreement. All requests for disbursement of said grant funds must
be in writing and must be accompanied by supporting documents reflecting the use of grant funds and/or
expenditures incurred, and that said request is being made in accordance with the Program's approved scope of
work and budget, and for expenditures incurred during the Term ofthis Agreement, as reflected in Exhibits "B"
and "C". For purposes of this Agreement, "supporting documentation" may include invoices, receipts,
photographs, and any other materials evidencing the expense incurred. The Grantee agrees that all invoices or
receipts reflecting the expenses incurred in connection to the Program shall be in the name of the Grantee, and
not in the name of the SEOPW CRA in light of the Grantee's inability to bind the SEOPW CRA to any legal
and/or monetary obligation whatsoever. The SEOPW CRA retains the right to request additional supporting
documentation, or additional explanation for any and all expenses incurred by the Grantee. Grantee's failure to
provide additional supporting documentation or additional explanation regarding expenses incurred shall
serve as grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement, and the Grantee shall bear the costs associated
with any expenditures not approved by the SEOPW CRA prior to the date of termination. Grantee
understands and acknowledges -that -the SEOPW CRA-shall--not--disburse-grant funds for any expense that has

expenses shall be borne solely by the Grantee.
e. PRE -APPROVAL OF EXPENSES. Grantee agrees to submit to the SEOPW CRA all
requests for the expenditure of Grant funds for pre -approval by the SEOPW CRA. Failure to submit said
requests prior to incurring expenses may result in the Grantee bearing the costs incurred. The SEOPW CRA
shall review said requests to ensure that the expense sought to be incurred by the Grantee is an expense within
approved scope of work and budget attached hereto as Exhibits "B" and "C", and the SEOPW CRA reserves
the right to deny any and all requests it deems to be outside of the scope and budget.
f. APPROVAL OF BUDGET MODIFICATIONS. Grantee agrees to submit any and all
budget modifications, in writing, including line -item expenditures which exceed budgeted amount, to the
Executive Director for approval.
g. CASH TRANSACTIONS PROHIBITED. The parties agree that no payment will be
made to Grantee as a reimbursement for any Program -specific expenditure paid in cash. Grantee
acknowledges that a cash transaction is insufficient per se to comply with record -keeping requirements under
this Agreement.
h. NO ADVANCE PAYMENTS. The SEOPW CRA shall not make advance payments
to the Grantee or Grantee's vendors for services not performed or for goods, materials or equipment which have
not been delivered to the Grantee for use in connection with the Program, except for mobilization funds as
described in Section 5(g) below.
i. MOBILIZATION FUNDS. The SEOPW CRA may provide a one-time release of funds
for start-up expenses in the amount not to exceed Four (4%) percent Seventeen Thousand Five Hundred Four Dollars
and Fifty Cents ($17,504.50) of the total grant. Prior to the release of mobilization funds, Grantee must provide an
itemized mobilization budget to the SEOPW CRA. The Grantee must also provide supporting documentation as
to how said mobilization funds were used prior to the SEOPW CRA releasing any funds for reimbursement

fails to perform any of the Grantee's obligations hereunder, and the Grantee does not cure such failure within

Community Redevelopment Agency
819 N.W. 2"d Avenue, 3rd Floor
Miami, Florida 33136
Dear Mr. McQueen,
Transition, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization located in the heart of Overtown, mission is to assist
under -served residents of Miami Dade County in becoming gainfully employed. Transition
provides clients with workforce readiness training, career exploration, job placements,
occupational skills training and pro -active coaching.
Transition targets its efforts towards assisting youthful offenders, returning residents, homeless,
disabled persons, veterans and low-income individuals as well as others facing various
employment barriers in the Overtown community. It is the agency's goal to remain pro -actively
engaged with clients and to ensure they succeed in satisfying job performance standards as well as
adopting additional life skills to remain financially stable and personally self-sufficient.
In the Fall of 2019, Transition received financial support from the Southeast Overtown/Park West
C.R.A. which allowed us to continue offering reentry services to the Overtown community. Much -
needed job development and training, referrals and placement services were provided. That year
over 200 employment placements were made! However, our greatest work and impact was yet to
come! During the Spring of 2020 our world shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks
to the support of the Southeast Overtown/Park West C.R.A., we were prepared to help our
community! As a Community Partner of the Department of Children and Families, Transition
assisted hundreds of residents apply for food stamps and unemployment. While most non -profits
closed their doors for months— ours remained opened, closing for only 10 weeks! As "front-line"
workers we partnered with Community Partners and distributed boxes of food and hot meals from
our office to Overtown residents. During these difficult and dark days, Transition assisted over
253 participants become employed. We could not have done this without the support of the
Southeast OvertownlPark West C.R.A. Each year Transition provides services to over 4,000
residents. Overtown residents depend and rely on our services each day and we are honored to
provide them!
Recently, Transition has partnered with Empowerment Zone Reentry Initiative (EZRI) to expand
existing employment services by engaging pre-release and post -release participants with holistic
1
case management and psychosocial support. In addition, Transition partners with Miami Dade
College to provide free Digital Education classes to Overtown residents and thanks to the
Southeast Overtown/Park West C.R.A. and Miami Dade College we offer Certification in
Construction Trades Program. Community Partners, Three Hundred Letters, Inc. help therapeutic
support and childcare services to participants who qualify, and the Florida Rights Restoration
Coalition (FRRC) help reduce prisonfees incurred by participants to restore their voting rights.
For over 15 years, Transition has partnered with Miami -Dade County Department of Corrections
and Rehabilitation to provide Workforce Readiness Training for their Boot Camp Re-entry
Program. Transition has almost 50 years of experience in positively impacting the lives of Miami -
Dade residents.
We kindly request the Southeast Overtown/Park West C.R.A. to provide a grant in the amount of
$292,060 to support our "Adult Employment & Training Program." This grant that will, assist
our efforts to reduce recidivism and empower Overtown residents.
Immediately below is our proposed budget supporting our request. What follows that is a
description of our programs, curriculum, programmatic statistics, brochure, and pictures.
We stand ready to answer any further questions. We Iook forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Stephen Gilmore
Executive Director

Changing Lives... One Job at a Time!
Leaders in Assisting Previously Incarcerated People
Providing Services
for qualified Candidates;
• Job Training and Job Placement
b. Obtain Identification Dominant.
Transition, Inc. has a history of providing job development, training, referrals, and placement
services in South Florida to previously incarcerated people as well as non -offenders. We take pride
in delivering comprehensive programs that positively impact our communities.
While Transition has a long-term proven success with our core mission of helping previously
incarcerated people find and maintain meaningful, gainful employment, we have expanded beyond
by providing "wrap -around" services, including GED preparation, transportation assistance, food
stamps, and almost everything else short of housing. It is our experience that the participants we
serve, and the other under -served communities we have come to serve, including
troubled/disassociated youth, homeless persons, and veterans, have distinct, additional needs that
must be filled for them to be able to undertake a meaningful opportunity for employment. Our
clients do not have the time or bandwidth to make multiple appointments with different agencies
to obtain other support.
We have found that when we refer people out for these services, the perception (and the reality) is
we are not truly assisting them but, instead, sending them to a sea of red -tape, bureaucracy, and
time and logistics sinks. On the other hand, when we have developed a positive rapport with our
4
clients (we have a knack for this), and then provide the range of assistance needed in a "one stop"
format, we have the best opportunity to effectuate our core mission: helping them get and maintain
employment.
Transition will provide the following services to the residents of Overtown:
Workforce Readiness and Employability Skills Workshops
Workforce readiness is a necessary component in searching for employment. In today's
competitive economy, it is critically important that job seekers know how to explore career
options, research job opportunities and apply for jobs; know how to communicate their skills and
competencies; know how to present themselves in the very best light during a job interview; know
how to prepare business documents including a resume, cover letter and thank you letter; know
how to obtain required documentation for work authorization; and know how to listen attentively,
follow instructions, and complete work assignments to distinguish themselves with supervisors
and associates.
Our Placement Specialists help participants increase their likelihood of employment by engaging
participants. Through discussion and practice, participants will become acquainted with these and
other workforce readiness concepts such as completing the onboarding process, satisfying job
performance standards, and managing personal finances. They will also learn how to prepare a
resume, cover letter, and thank you letter, conduct job searches, complete online job applications
and participate in a mock job interview during class.
5
Career Exploration and Job Placement
Participants are assigned a Placement Specialist who works with them to explore career options,
review their resumes, contact corporate employers, and schedule job interviews. The Placement
Specialist then determines whether additional occupational skills training is necessary should a
client wish to pursue employment opportunities in, for instance, the construction, logistics, IT,
security, or health care industries. Prior to the interview, the participants will undergo a mock
interview with his/her Placement Specialist to practice and tailor responses to the job he/she is
pursuing. Participants are expected to meet regularly with their Placement Specialist until they
secure employment.
Proactive Coaching and Wrap -Around Services
Our Life Coach will maintain contact with participants from the point of recruitment through job
placement and beyond. Staff work with clients to determine and provide critical wrap -around
services and support to successfully secure and sustain employment, career advancement, and self-
sustainability.
If participants encounter barriers or challenges, they have ready access to key staff for mentoring
and/or life coach assistance.

Transition
Changing Lives... One Job at a Time!
Our Process
Participants' on -boarding will consist of completing digital program application and career
assessment. Transition primarily uses the My Next Move Career Assessment. My Next Move is
designed to help participants understand how a variety of personal attributes (i.e., data values,
preferences, motivations, aptitudes, and skills) impact their potential success, satisfaction with
different career options and work environments.
After each participant completes their application and career assessment, they will receive
instruction in an orientation session prior to meeting their assigned Placement Specialist. The
orientation will provide the history of the organization, a review of our programs and services,
organization policies/rules and a breakdown of the requirements for participating in the Workforce
Readiness Training Program.
Following orientation, each participant will be scheduled for a one-on-one meeting with their
Placement Specialist. During this meeting an Initial Assessment (IA) will be completed. The Initial
Assessment will offer insight into the employment barriers of each participant (i.e., lack of
transportation, valid I-9 documents). In addition, Initial Assessment will shed light into other areas
outside of employment that may require much -needed wrap -around services. The Placement
Specialist and participant will also begin work on their Individualized Employment Plan (IEP).
The IEP is jointly developed by the participant and the Placement Specialist and identifies the
participant's employment goals, determines the combination of services needed for the participant
to reach employment goals, and is one of the most effective ways to serve individuals with barriers
to employment and to coordinate services. Short term and long employment goals including
potential educational and job training opportunities serves as benchmarks on the IEP.
Each participant will meet for approximately 4 weeks, twice a week for Workforce Readiness
Training Class and once a week for individual meetings with their Placement Specialist. The
Workforce Readiness Training Program provides an opportunity for participants to learn how to
create a cover letter; thank you letter and resume. In addition, activities such as mock interviews,
7
work etiquette and everyday job skills are covered during the course. A Financial. Literacy
component has been added to our program. The goal of this program is to help participants to
develop a stronger understanding of basic financial concepts - that way, they can handle their
money better.
Following the completion of the Workforce Readiness Training Program participants will begin
receiving job referrals and job placement opportunities. Our staff will remain proactively engaged
with participants to ensure they succeed in satisfying job performance standards as well as
adopting additional life skills to remain financially stable and personally self-sufficient. Transition
staff will perform 30-day, 60-day and 90-day follow-ups with participants to track their success or
provide additional support. Furthermore, during the client's initial visit they met with the
Empowerment Zone Reentry Initiative (EZRI) as part of our "One Umbrella Case Management"
program. During this first meeting with a Social Worker, participants talk about additional wrap-
around services that they made need outside of employment and job training. If a participant needs
therapy or counseling sessions during the "initial assessment," EZRI will schedule follow-up
appointments.
