About this award
The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the VA Strategic Acquisition Center Frederick, awarded a $50,000 firm fixed-price contract to Depression & Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA), a Chicago-based nonprofit organization, to provide established peer specialist certification training and certification services to VA-employed peer support staff. This contract was issued as a call under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) and does not carry a set-aside designation. The work will be performed in Chicago, Illinois, with an ultimate completion date of December 8, 2026. DBSA specializes in peer support services and mental health training programs with particular expertise in supporting veterans and individuals affected by mood disorders.
This contract supports the VA Office of Peer Support Services within the Veterans Health Administration's Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention (OMHSP) in its mission to expand and professionalize peer support capabilities across the VA system. DBSA operates under a larger multiple-award BPA with the VA valued at $750,000 (with completion targeted for July 10, 2027), under which this call represents one of several task orders for peer specialist training and certification. The nonprofit's experience delivering evidence-based peer support curricula and certifying professionals aligns with the VA's broader mental health initiatives aimed at leveraging lived experience and peer support to enhance veteran mental health outcomes and reduce suicide risk.
