Description
The North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities (NCCDD) seeks to invest in proactive approaches to criminal justice for people with intellectual and other developmental disabilities (I/DD) to keep them safe and keep them out of the criminal justice system during interactions with law enforcement officials and/or first responders in emergency situations and in times of crisis.
Budget
Please attach a budget for Year 1 that includes the $110,000 of NCCDD’s funds and $36,667 or more in Non-Federal Matching Funds.
Additional Detail: In addition to submitting a proposal for this RFA, you must complete the budget form in DD Suite for the first year of your initiative. This initiative is funded in the amount of $110,000. A 25% non-Federal match in the amount of $36,667 is required for this initiative for a total budget of $146,667. This matching requirement means that 25% of the total initiative budget (Council funds + Match Funds) must come from non-Federal funds (e.g. state, local, agency, and/or private funds).
