Agency Review

Funding Human Services for Tempe
FY 2025-2026
     

For Fiscal Year 2025-26, Tempe’s City Council approved $1.136 million in funding to support agencies offering 43 different services and programs, addressing a wide range of needs that Tempe residents may be facing. The primary funding source for these services comes from City of Tempe tax dollars, specifically allocated to support human services within the community.  Additional funds come from Together Tempe donations, collected through City of Tempe utility bills and direct contributions to Tempe Community Council.

Each year, the “Agency Review” process is administered and overseen by Tempe Community Council. This process brings together a diverse panel of community members from Tempe to review, interview, and recommend agencies, services, and funding allocations to the Tempe City Council for final approval. The process is community-based driven and ensures that the voices and needs of Tempe residents are represented.

The selected programs and services help individuals and families move from crisis to stability, and in some cases, toward self-sufficiency. These services address critical areas of need, including aging, homelessness, poverty, disabilities, abuse, addiction, youth support, food security, isolation, mental health, and shelter.
