UNSPSC 93141501: Social policy services

UNSPSC 93141501 Social policy services, a Commodity code, encompasses family preservation, family assistance, parenting support, and related child welfare intervention services that state and local governments procure to prevent child abuse and neglect, reduce out-of-home placements, and support family reunification and permanency outcomes. Recent solicitations show state health and human services departments soliciting in-home family services, parenting time visitation support, batterer intervention, parent education, and intensive family preservation programming delivered by nonprofits and social service organizations on an hourly unit-rate or annual contract basis. The code sees concentrated activity from state departments of health and human services (particularly Michigan, but also Maine, Utah, and Washington), with secondary activity from county health systems, local government social services offices, and regional child welfare authorities. Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services dominates recent activity, issuing dozens of family preservation and family assistance program RFPs across its 83 counties; other repeat buyers include Washington State's Department of Children, Youth & Families, the Utah Department of Health and Human Services, and the State of Maine.

Geographic spread is heavily concentrated in Michigan, where the state's regional procurement structure generates continuous volume across Alpena, Montmorency, Livingston, Kalamazoo, Ottawa, Washtenaw, Wayne, Macomb, Jackson, Monroe, Ingham, Bay, Gladwin, Midland, Arenac, Wexford, Missaukee, and Lenawee Counties. Washington State (particularly the five-county region east of the Cascades: Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and Utah show secondary but active procurement; Maine, Los Angeles County (California), and Monroe County (Florida) appear in recent notices. Representative opportunities include the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services RFP #25-0062 (Prevention and Aftercare services, due October 20, 2026); Michigan MDHHS RFP 260000002008 (In-Home Family Services, Alpena-Montmorency Counties, due June 10, 2026, closed); Washington DCYF RFP #26-DCYF-OJJ-102 (Credible Messengers Transition & Re-Entry Services, due July 28, 2026); and Utah DHHS (Residential Treatment Services, due July 29, 2026). Award values range from approximately $50,000 to $600,000 over three-year terms, with unit rates typically $50–$175 per hour and annual allocations for transportation and specific assistance embedded in contract structure.
