Description

The objective of this RFP is to solicit Proposals that will enable the city to determine which company and proposed solution will best meet the city’s needs for the services detailed in the scope of work. In 2019, more than 100 homicides occurred in Charlotte — an 80% increase over the previous year and the city's highest number of homicides since the early 1990s. Hospital emergency departments treated more than 4,000 Mecklenburg County residents for assault-related injuries. In response to the increase in violence, the city, county and partners have adopted a new public health approach to prevent violent crime. To help address this problem, the Office of Equity, Mobility and Immigrant Integration seeks one community organization to act as the lead agency and implement Cure Violence Global’s violence interruption model in the priority geography of Nations Ford Road and Arrowood Road. The success of this project will rely on the community organization and other stakeholders to mobilize community members against shootings and homicides.
