Solicitation # DPARC-678A

The County of Riverside’s Department of Public Social Services is soliciting qualified providers to deliver Differential Response (DR) Services aimed at supporting families referred for child abuse or neglect assessments that do not warrant formal child welfare intervention. This program offers a flexible, family-centered alternative to traditional investigations by providing voluntary, community-based services tailored to each family’s unique strengths and needs, with the primary goal of ensuring child safety while preventing entry into or re-entry into the formal child welfare system. The initiative targets families assessed as low to moderate risk, where no immediate safety threat exists, and focuses on early intervention through evidence-based practices to address emerging issues before they escalate, thereby reducing the likelihood of future hotline referrals and substantiated allegations. Approximately 300 to 1,000 referrals are anticipated annually, with no guaranteed volume, and providers must be prepared to adapt to fluctuating demand while maintaining a strong emphasis on outcomes and family engagement. The success of the program will be measured through both leading and lagging indicators, including changes in family depression, stress levels, and overall functioning, as well as comparisons between families who accept services and those who decline, tracking recurrence of allegations, substantiated reports, and new case openings. Key objectives include reducing child detentions, minimizing subsequent referrals, increasing service utilization among at-risk families, and strengthening community partnerships and family involvement. The contract, identified as DPARC-678A and posted on July 28, 2026, requires proposals to be submitted by August 27, 2026, and is open to qualified entities capable of delivering culturally competent, trauma-informed, and outcome-driven services within Riverside County.
