The California Department of Children and Family Services is soliciting proposals under RFP 26-0036 to provide Family Support and Abuse Prevention Services for Children with Developmental Disabilities in Los Angeles. The program aims to serve approximately 300 children annually in the First Supervisorial District through case management, parent education, in-home counseling, and community education. The contract is funded by Assembly Bill 2994 with a maximum annual funding amount of 300,000 dollars. The anticipated term begins January 1, 2028, for one year, with the County holding the option to extend for four additional one-year periods, totaling a maximum of five years. The scope of work requires the contractor to utilize the Strengthening Families Protective Factors Framework for intake and assessment and the Shared Core Practice Model for service planning. Performance is measured via a Performance Requirements Summary, where meeting 95 to 100 percent of targets is considered exceeding the outcome, while falling below 85 percent is deemed unsatisfactory and may lead to contract termination. Award decisions are based on a combined score of the business proposal, weighted at 70 percent, and the cost proposal, weighted at 30 percent, following a pass-fail gate for minimum mandatory requirements. Proposals must be submitted electronically by October 30, 2026, at 12:00 PM PDT, consisting of four separate PDF files including the business proposal, cost proposal, three years of audited financial statements, and required forms. The contractor must provide a firm-fixed price valid for 24 months and comply with 2 CFR Part 200 regarding financial expenditures. Key requirements include maintaining a current UEI and SAM.gov registration, providing comprehensive general liability insurance with the County as an additional insured, and ensuring all staff meet specific professional qualifications and background clearances.
