Scope

The City of Santa Monica ("the City") invites competitive proposals from eligible nonprofit organizations through the Human Services Grants Program (HSGP) for programs that respond to clearly identified community needs in Santa Monica. Grant agreements will be executed for a term of four years, with annual funding contingent upon available funds, satisfactory outcomes, effective program performance, and City Council approval. Applicants should demonstrate how their programs use best practices and evidence-based approaches to address the community needs identified in this Request for Proposals (RFP). This RFP is open to all qualifying agencies with experience administering human services programs, including agencies that have not previously applied for the HSGP or that have not historically operated in the City but have a robust plan for providing services locally. The Funding Guidelines for the FY 2027-31 HSGP RFP were approved by City Council on August 11, 2026 and are incorporated throughout this RFP

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

  1. Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
  2. Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
  3. This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
  4. Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
