Agency Review Newsletter
Greetings!

Thank you for your support of Agency Review, the City of Tempe's Human Services grant process!  Agency Review is a rewarding and valuable experience which provides a unique perspective on the needs of our community. 
History
TCC staff
For more than 20 years TCC has managed and administered the allocation of human service dollars by the City of Tempe to local nonprofit human service organizations.  Resources are allocated to the organizations through a volunteer, citizen-based review process titled "Agency Review."  Final funding decisions are made by the Tempe City Council.
Source of Funds 
Agency Review funds come from the City of Tempe General Revenue Fund, Federal Community Development Block Grants, voluntary water utility customer donations through Tempe's Help to Others program, and the Tempe Community Foundation endowment.  Total funds allocated are more than $1 million to approximately 40 Valley-wide agencies serving Tempe clients.  Click here for a detailed list of agencies which are funded through this process.

Community Assessment  Help us to learn more about the current needs of our Tempe Community and participate in the 2009 City of Tempe Human Services Survey here

TCC appreciates the community volunteers who generously give their time to review, interview and recommend the vital human services that help make Tempe a "community" where we live, work, play, and connect those in need with those who care.
 
Sincerely,
