Care First Community Investment
Since 2020, Amity Foundation proudly serves as the Third-Party Administrator for a historic grant provided through the Los Angeles County Justice, Care, and Opportunities Department (JCOD): the Care First Community Investment. Through that partnership, Amity has identified 400 grantee organizations to receive $350 million from JCOD’s CFCI grant to support their programs.
Amity Foundation & the CFCI Grant
Through a competitively bid process, Amity Foundation was selected to act as Third-Party Administrator (TPA) to manage and distribute a portion of funds included in the Care First Community Investment (CFCI) spending plan, and Non-Care First Community Investment (Non-CFCI) funds for Grants to Justice-Focused Community-Based Organizations. Amity will be responsible for distributing $55M over three years across eight program areas with the goal of equitably increasing access to funding for organizations serving youth and those impacted by injustice and inequities within the criminal legal systems and will give priority to organizations that have historically experienced barriers to accessing County funding.
