Current Funding Opportunities /
Request for Investment
The Seattle Human Services Department implements its investments in human services through processes called Request for Investment (RFI) and Request for Qualifications (RFQ).
An RFI/RFQ is an open and competitive funding allocation process. With an RFI, the City defines the investment results within a Strategic Investment Plan Program Area. Interested agencies may respond to a RFI/RFQ by submitting a proposal requesting an investment by the City of Seattle for a specific project, program, or service. RFIs and RFQs are reviewed as part of a process that identifies the proposals most likely to deliver results. Please call the RFI/RFQ Coordinator listed in the announcement document if you have any questions about the process.
