Current Funding Opportunities and Request for Investment
The Seattle Human Services Department implements its investments in human services through processes called Request for Investment (RFI), Request for Qualifications (RFQ), and Request for Proposals (RFP).
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. The contact person listed for each RFI/RFQ announcement can assist you with questions about the process.
