SRI Technical Assistance Provider RFQ

First 5 LA is issuing this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to individuals and groups interested in working with our staff to develop and implement a Technical Assistance Plan for programs funded under the Commission’s School Readiness Initiative (SRI). Our goal is to strengthen organizational capacity to build and maintain high quality and sustainable efforts for children ages 0 to 5 and their families. Applicants must have experience providing technical assistance to both schools and community-based agencies, and extensive knowledge of systems and programs serving young children.

In response to this RFQ, applicants are required to submit a complete application packet to First 5 LA no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, July 14, 2008. For additional information about this opportunity, please contact Marsha Ellis, Program Officer, at 213.482.7547 or mellis@first5la.org.
