The Office of Community Care and Empowerment (OCCE) provides direction and oversight of the City’s social, human, and supportive services to help create equity for seniors, children, and other city of Dallas residents to improve their quality and standard of living. OCC manages a range of social services, which provides emergency assistance to individuals and families who have experienced a temporary financial crisis.
The Notice of Funding Availability, better known as NOFA, is one method by which the Office of Community Care and Empowerment (OCCE) announces certain grant opportunities. NOFA's are open to non-profit organizations based in the city of Dallas that provide social services to individuals and families in need.
Links to currently open NOFA's will be posted on this webpage. If there is nothing posted here, there are no currently open NOFA's, although there may be funding opportunities available through the City's Procurement Portal, Bonfire. OCCE also encourages organizations to register with our Office of Procurement Services to receive notifications about procurement opportunities.
