Green Valley Neighborhood Partnership Initiative NOFA

Overview

The County Board has designated $80,000 in one-time funding for Green Valley. As described in the FY26 Supplemental Budget Guidance, the funding is intended to support community engagement which could include pilots of place-making, community building, programming, economic development, and housing. Proposals resulting from this process may help the County understand how to successfully engage with the community in the future.

Proposals should respond to an identified need in Green Valley and should directly and uniquely work within the Green Valley neighborhood to help residents and the community thrive. The County is looking for novel programming, seeking to limit redundancy with opportunities already available within the community. Proposed programming should take place in calendar year 2026 with an emphasis on starting work before July 1, although the County may consider extended timelines at its sole discretion.

Proposals may be submitted as a collaboration between multiple nonprofits when the collaboration yields a greater collective impact than an individual organization would support. While collaboration is encouraged, it is not required; the County values proposals which demonstrate a lasting impact in the community.

Proposals will be submitted through the County's Submittable portal here by Friday, November 14, 2025, at 5:00 pm.

Questions may be addressed to Elizabeth Matlock at ematlock@arlingtonva.us.
