The Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) in Florida has issued contract C7953D for the provision of court-ordered evaluations, effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The contract is valued at $25,000.00 and encompasses fifty (50) evaluations at a unit price of $500.00 each. These evaluations consist of adult (916) and child (985) assessments for individuals charged with felony offenses, as mandated by the courts in their respective jurisdictions.

Under this arrangement, APD assumes responsibility for the supplemental portion of evaluation costs, specifically the remaining balance after the relevant county Clerk of Courts has contributed its share in accordance with local administrative rules. All expenditures must be processed through Purchase Orders rather than through the Integrated Financial System (IFS). Contract inquiries and authorization matters should be directed to Stanley Warnock at 239-338-1491. The contract is structured as a cost-sharing arrangement in which APD provides partial funding while county court systems contribute proportional funding based on individual county fee structures.
