About the Consolidated Community Funding Pool (CCFP)

The Consolidated Community Funding Pool (CCFP) is a competitive funding process for human services programs developed and administered by nonprofits and community-based organizations. The funding allocated to organizations through the CCFP serves as an investment and catalyst for strengthening the human services network of programs available for Fairfax County residents.

The CCFP categories are developed and recommended by the CCFAC based on review and analysis of both data and community input. Throughout the CCFP’s history, the CCFAC has strategically adjusted the category setting process to meet the county’s changing needs and to recognize the changing nature of community-based service providers.

Funds are awarded to applicants on a two-year cycle based upon the recommendations from the resident Selection Advisory Committee (SAC) and approval of the Board of Supervisors. The SAC evaluates and scores proposals in accordance with the funding priorities developed and recommended by the Consolidated Community Funding Advisory Committee (CCFAC). Contracts are awarded to the approved programs by the Department of Procurement and Material Management.

Funding in the CCFP is available from a combination of sources, including the Fairfax County General Fund, the Federal and State Community Services Block Grant and the Federal Community Development Block Grant. It is jointly staffed through a partnership of several human services agencies.
