Mayor Catherine Pugh’s office is taking pitches from nonprofits to operate three new sites for Safe Streets, the city’s community-based violence-prevention program.
A request for proposals that opened Friday on CitiBuy, the Baltimore City government’s online vendor marketplace, invites organizations to apply to work with the mayor’s office on opening three new Safe Streets locations.
To be eligible, the applicant must be a registered nonprofit in good standing as a tax-exempt organization with the state, and “must demonstrate existing relationships with community agencies and partners and provide letters of support from these partnerships,” among other qualifications, according to the RFP.
Each site will receive up to $500,000 in funding to pay employees and cover administrative and programming costs. The deadline to apply is June 13.
