EOH Strategic Plan Development for Homeless Response

The Rhode Island Executive Office of Housing is seeking a qualified vendor to develop a comprehensive Strategic Plan to End Homelessness, to be submitted to the Rhode Island General Assembly. The vendor will lead a statewide, stakeholder-driven process to organize, draft, and deliver a plan that aligns with state statutory requirements and federal strategic guidance, ensuring alignment with existing policies and funding frameworks. The plan must include clear, measurable implementation steps, defined outcomes, and robust reporting commitments to track progress and accountability over time. The solicitation, identified as RFP26006672, was posted on June 8, 2026, with responses due by June 29, 2026. The contract is open to vendors capable of managing complex, multi-sector engagement across state and local agencies, nonprofit organizations, service providers, and individuals with lived experience of homelessness. The work will be performed across Rhode Island, and all communications should be directed to Max Righter, the primary point of contact. The vendor is expected to deliver a final plan that not only outlines a vision for ending homelessness but also establishes a practical roadmap with timelines, resource allocation strategies, and performance metrics to support state oversight and funding decisions.
