Solicitation CCHD-2027-006, titled FY27 Building a Cecil County Community Health Worker Workforce, is a cost reimbursement request for proposals issued by the Maryland Procurement Office. The initiative seeks to fund the hiring of up to two Community Health Workers per offeror, with a maximum annual funding limit of 62,500 dollars per worker.

To be eligible, offerors must be physically located in Cecil County and serve its residents. The initial period of performance begins on or before December 1, 2026, and ends on June 30, 2027, with the possibility of four one-year renewal terms based on funding and performance. Proposals are due by November 9, 2026, and must be submitted via email with a specific subject line.

Awardees will be selected based on the most favorable proposals, with funding available for between one and eight offerors. Required documentation includes a proposal cover page, a budget that excludes indirect costs, a proposal affidavit, a certificate of insurance, and a legal action summary covering the past five years. Contractors must also certify corporation registration, tax payment, and maintain a drug and alcohol-free workplace.
