Dept. issues Requests for Proposals for human trafficking programming
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) has issued a Request for Proposals (RFPs) to provide services to expand and strengthen victim service programs for survivors of human sex and labor trafficking by building capacity in eligible organizations that have more limited experience in serving victims of human trafficking.
The Human Trafficking Victims Services Expansion Pilot Program RFP supports an increase in organizational capacity in the first award period, from March 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022. In subsequent award periods, the grant supports a wide range of services to human sex and labor trafficking survivors.
This RFP is open to 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, including faith-based organizations, that have at least one year of experience in delivering human trafficking victims services or working with human trafficking organizations in their communities. A total of $500,000, subject to continued availability of funding, will be awarded over a three-year period, with the first year focusing on increasing organizational capacity. In the first award period, MDHHS anticipates issuing up to three awards with a maximum of $55,555 per award, at a total of $166,665.
Funded applicants will receive ongoing technical assistance from the MDHHS project coordinator. Technical assistance will include help with program start-up, reporting requirements and barriers to program implementation.
Grant applications for the Human Trafficking Victims Services Expansion Pilot Program RFP must be submitted electronically through the EGrAMS program by 3 p.m. on January 13, 2022.
For additional information or to apply, visit the EGrAMS website (https://egrams-mi.com/mdhhs/user/home.aspx) and select "About EGrAMS" link in the left panel to access the "Competitive Application Instructions" training manual.
