School-Based Psychological Services Delivery

The contract is for the delivery of school-based psychological services at Ojo Encino Day School, focusing on mental health assessments, counseling, behavioral interventions, and comprehensive student support services that align with the school’s educational mission. Services must be provided in a culturally responsive manner to meet the needs of Native American students, with an emphasis on integrating psychological care into the academic environment to promote student well-being and success. The work is under a subcontract governed by the Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-aside program, which reserves the opportunity exclusively for qualified Native-owned small businesses, reflecting the Department of the Interior’s commitment to supporting tribal economic development and self-determination. The NAICS code 621330 classifies this as outpatient mental health and substance abuse services, underscoring the clinical nature of the required deliverables. The solicitation was posted on July 6, 2026, with a response deadline of July 13, 2026, indicating a short turnaround requiring prompt proposal submission. While specific location details are not provided, the performance site is clearly tied to Ojo Encino Day School, an institution serving Native American communities under the jurisdiction of the Indian Education Acquisition Office. The contract structure implies coordination with school staff, adherence to tribal and federal education standards, and likely requires licensed clinical professionals with experience in school settings and cultural competency with Indigenous populations. Financial terms, duration, and performance metrics are not detailed here, but compliance with ISBEE requirements and alignment with the Department of the Interior's educational goals are central to the award criteria.
