may report the termination to the OMB-designated integrity and performance system accessible
through the federal System of Award Management("SAM").

be assessed against the City for its termination of the Agreement.
G. Force Majeure.
1. The SUBRECIPIENT shall not be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of
any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or failure is caused by explosion, war,
embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, pandemic, act of God, or other
similar causes beyond the SUBRECIPIENT's control so long as the SUBRECIPIENT's delay
Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement
City of Boynton Beach and Pathways to Prosperity, Inc.

the SUBRECIPIENT cannot claim Force Majeure under this provision for any emergency,
exigency, or "Act of God" that is specifically contemplated within the "Scope of Services" of
this Agreement, or which in any way existed at the time this Agreement was executed.

SUBRECIPIENT shall notify the City in writing within seven (7) business days after the
beginning of any such cause that would affect its performance under this Agreement. Failure

exceeding seven (7)business days from the date the City receives the required Force Majeure
notice,the City shall have the right to terminate this Contract thereafter and shall only be liable
to the SUBRECIPIENT for any work performed pursuant to this Agreement prior to the date of

Scope of Services
CIRCLES Boynton Beach Program
Overview:Circles Palm Beach County is based on a model that empowers people in poverty to build intentional
relationships across income and class lines.Circles is a nationwide,proven anti-poverty strategy recognizing a
family's upward mobility is inextricably linked to the economic&social capital of their personal and professional
"circles".Circles'unique,comprehensive curriculum identifies and addresses barriers keeping people in poverty.
Circles is a highly effective program:within our most recent cohort of graduates,33%experienced increased
income within the first 6 months of program participation.41%of Boynton Beach Circles'participants increased
their savings in the last year,with an average savings increase of$4,111.
Circles PBC will serve 21 Circle Leaders from Boynton Beach and their families,for a total of 50 individuals from
Boynton Beach served.Participants will receive family stabilization support and financial literacy,dinner,
childcare,and support with transportation for Circles-related meetings,plus case management and wrap-
around support.
Scope of Services:Circles matches people living in poverty,or"Circle Leaders",with middle-to upper-income
volunteers,called"Allies",to establish relationships across class lines and create multidimensional support
systems.Circles staff,or"Coaches",provide financial literacy,transitional services,guide goal-setting and match
Circle Leaders with a volunteer Ally.Allies support them in reaching their goals:increasing savings or skills,
getting a job or a better one,making sound financial and other life decisions.The Circles Case Manager provides
wrap-around support such as obtaining government IDs,safe/stable housing,food security,healthcare access,
emergency financial support when needed,parenting and childcare resources,and more.
Circle Leader training is conducted in cohorts of 15 to 20 individuals for 15 to 18 weeks,culminating in a
graduation celebration. Participants assess their current relationships,resources and reason or purpose for
making the necessary changes to escape from poverty permanently.During this time Allies also attend training
sessions that increase awareness of poverty issues within the families they will be matched with as well as issues
that affect the community as a whole.
After graduating from Circle Leader training,participants are matched with an Ally for a minimum of 18 months,
where the real work begins. They work towards reaching their SMART goals in 3 key areas: financial,
educational,and social.
Moving forward,weekly Community Meetings gather Circle Leaders,Allies,Coaches,and other interested
community members to provide support and networking opportunities,with topics such as how to start a business
(with speakers from CRA)and first time homebuying(with local real estate professionals).
Big View Meetings are held once per month,and feature a far-ranging discussion of the causes of poverty in the
community and how to address them for the long term,in the process removing systemic barriers.A 12-person
Guiding Coalition,spearheaded by Circle Leader graduates,helps determine programmatic direction and meets
once per month.
We also host monthly Circle Leader and Ally mixers,where everyone breaks bread together while discussing
challenges and sharing successes.
Dinner,childcare,and support with transportation for all Circles-related meetings is provided.Children of Circle
Leaders and Allies are introduced to financial literacy education through our Circles for Youth program,where
they,too,create Dream Boards,set SMART goals,open bank accounts,and participate in savings challenges much

be the employee of the SUBRECIPIENT for all purposes, including but not limited to for any worker's
compensation matters.
B. Non-Agent SUBRECIPIENT. The Boynton Beach City Commission has not delegated to any City

such records are subject to an exemption from disclosure and shall indemnify the City from
and against any and all claims, actions, damages, fees, fines, penalties, defense costs, suits

Information where SUBRECIPIENT asserts an exemption to disclosure

1. Generally. If the SUBRECIPIENT meets the definition of"Covered Entity," as defined in 45

must at least permit the disclosure of any PHI that is in any way related to the
Subaward-funded services that individual(s) receive to the City for reporting,
monitoring, and auditing purposes.
c. The City hereby reserves the right to deny payment for any costs the SUBRECIPIENT

provision is applicable to secure such requisite medical release authorizations as well.

this Agreement require access to PHI generated by the City, then the SUBRECIPIENT must
execute a Business Associate Agreement that complies with the standards found in 45 CFR§
164.504(e).

2. If, pursuant to this Agreement, the SUBRECIPIENT is maintaining, storing, or processing
personal information on behalf of the City,the SUBRECIPIENT is the City's"Third-Party Agent"
under FIPA and hereby agrees to comply with all obligations for such "Third-Party Agents" as
detailed in Section 501.171, Florida Statutes. These obligations include, but are not limited to:
a. Taking reasonable measures to protect and secure data in electronic form containing
personal information; and

notices,fines, or fees assessed against the City for any breach of Personal Information that is
the fault of the SUBRECIPIENT.
Article 21: Remedies for Noncompliance
A. Remedies for Noncompliance. Pursuant to 2 CFR§200.339 ("Remedies for Noncompliance"), if
the SUBRECIPIENT fails to comply with the U.S. Constitution, federal statutes, regulations, or the
terms and conditions of a Federal Award or any additional conditions that the Federal Awarding
Agency or City may impose, and the Federal Awarding Agency or City determine that such
noncompliance cannot be remedied by imposing additional conditions, the Federal Awarding Agency

Article 22: Termination
A. Termination for Convenience by the City. Pursuant to 2 CFR Part 200, Appendix II, Paragraph B,
contracts made pursuant to a Federal Award must address termination for convenience by the City
including the manner by which it will be affected and the basis for settlement. As such, the City may

of the Subaward will not accomplish the purposes for which the Subaward was made, the City may
terminate the Subaward in its entirety. Additionally, a SUBRECIPIENT's failure to complete
performance on a Subaward in the manner initially agreed upon may compromise the
SUBRECIPIENT's ability to receive subawards, other grants, or any other contract opportunities from
the City in the future.

its sole discretion, determines that the SUBRECIPIENT is unable to perform under this
Agreement.

accept the SUBRECIPIENT's proposed cure if such an opportunity is provided, the City
reserves the right to provide the SUBRECIPIENT the opportunity to cure any stated breach.
Such opportunity to cure can be used in tandem with, or in lieu of, a Letter of Findings issued

4. In the Event of Wrongful Termination for Cause. If a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that this Agreement was wrongfully terminated for cause, then the
SUBRECIPIENT's damages for such termination, if any, shall be the same as if the City
terminated this Agreement for convenience.
D. Reporting to Federal Awarding Agency. If the City determines that termination of this Agreement
was due to the SUBRECIPIENT's material failure to comply with the Subaward's terms and conditions,
the City reserves the right to report the SUBRECIPIENT to the Federal Awarding Agency so that it
may report the termination to the OMB-designated integrity and performance system accessible
through the federal System of Award Management ("SAM").

6. Finalize all necessary reports, invoices, and other documentation required under the terms of

reimbursement or payment amount due the SUBRECIPIENT. No other damages, fees, or costs may
be assessed against the City for its termination of the Agreement.
G. Force Majeure.
1. The SUBRECIPIENT shall not be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of
any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or failure is caused by explosion, war,
embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, pandemic, act of God, or other
similar causes beyond the SUBRECIPIENT's control so long as the SUBRECIPIENT's delay
Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement
City of Boynton Beach and Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corporation, Inc.
Page 24 of 30
is not caused by the SUBRECIPIENT's own fault or negligence.Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the SUBRECIPIENT cannot claim Force Majeure under this provision for any emergency,
exigency, or "Act of God" that is specifically contemplated within the "Scope of Services" of
this Agreement, or which in any way existed at the time this Agreement was executed.
2. The above notwithstanding, in order to claim delay pursuant to this provision, the
SUBRECIPIENT shall notify the City in writing within seven (7) business days after the
beginning of any such cause that would affect its performance under this Agreement. Failure
to notify the City in a timely manner of any claim of Force Majeure made pursuant to this
provision is cause for termination of this Agreement.

exceeding seven (7)business days from the date the City receives the required Force Majeure
notice,the City shall have the right to terminate this Contract thereafter and shall only be liable
to the SUBRECIPIENT for any work performed pursuant to this Agreement prior to the date of
the City's termination.

Agreement pursuant to this provision. Nothing in this provision shall prevent the City from
terminating this Agreement for any purpose otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement.

determines that this Agreement was wrongfully terminated for cause, then the
SUBRECIPIENT's damages for such termination, if any, shall be the same as if the City
terminated this Agreement for convenience.
D. Reporting to Federal Awarding Agency. If the City determines that termination of this Agreement
was due to the SUBRECIPIENT's material failure to comply with the Subaward's terms and conditions,
the City reserves the right to report the SUBRECIPIENT to the Federal Awarding Agency so that it
may report the termination to the OMB-designated integrity and performance system accessible
through the federal System of Award Management("SAM").

7. Take any other actions as reasonably directed in writing by the City.
F. Payment in Event of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated before performance is completed,
whether for convenience or cause, the SUBRECIPIENT shall be paid for the work or services
satisfactorily performed. In the event the Agreement is terminated for cause, the City shall be entitled
to collect all or part of any funds owed to the City by the SUBRECIPIENT by deduction from the
reimbursement or payment amount due the SUBRECIPIENT. No other damages, fees, or costs may
be assessed against the City for its termination of the Agreement.
G. Force Majeure.
1. The SUBRECIPIENT shall not be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of
any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or failure is caused by explosion, war,
embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, pandemic, act of God, or other
similar causes beyond the SUBRECIPIENT's control so long as the SUBRECIPIENT's delay
Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement
City of Boynton Beach and Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County, Inc.
Page 24 of 30
is not caused by the SUBRECIPIENT's own fault or negligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the SUBRECIPIENT cannot claim Force Majeure under this provision for any emergency,
exigency, or "Act of God" that is specifically contemplated within the "Scope of Services" of
this Agreement, or which in any way existed at the time this Agreement was executed.
2. The above notwithstanding, in order to claim delay pursuant to this provision, the
SUBRECIPIENT shall notify the City in writing within seven (7) business days after the
beginning of any such cause that would affect its performance under this Agreement. Failure
to notify the City in a timely manner of any claim of Force Majeure made pursuant to this
provision is cause for termination of this Agreement.
3. If the SUBRECIPIENT's performance is delayed pursuant to this provision for a period
exceeding seven (7)business days from the date the City receives the required Force Majeure
notice,the City shall have the right to terminate this Contract thereafter and shall only be liable
to the SUBRECIPIENT for any work performed pursuant to this Agreement prior to the date of
the City's termination.
4. No other damages, fees, or costs may be assessed against the City for its termination of this
Agreement pursuant to this provision. Nothing in this provision shall prevent the City from
terminating this Agreement for any purpose otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement.

a family's opportunities and living conditions through the provision of high quality civil legal advice,

including but not limited to:representation at restraining order hearings for victims of domestic violence,sexual
assault and stalking; investigation of cases of abuse, neglect and exploitation of frail and vulnerable seniors;
assistance with immigration matters, particularly for victims of domestic violence and juveniles in the
dependency system; and the filing of appeals for individuals with HIV/AIDS who have been wrongfully denied
disability benefits.

and for social service providers and representatives from the banking and realty sectors.The attorney will also
