UNSPSC 93141509: Social problems analysis or management services

UNSPSC 93141509 Social problems analysis or management services is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure direct delivery of family preservation, child welfare, youth reentry, and related social intervention services to vulnerable populations. Recent solicitations show state and county child welfare agencies, health authorities, and housing authorities soliciting case management, parenting support, family strengthening, foster care prevention, and transitional living services delivered by nonprofit and for-profit service providers through competitive RFP and RFQ processes. Issuing bodies include the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, Washington State Department of Children, Youth & Families, Housing Authority of the City of Alameda, Travis County Healthcare District, and the State of Maine. The code captures work spanning prevention and aftercare services for at-risk families, batterer intervention and domestic violence support, adolescent transitional living and youth reentry mentoring, in-home family preservation, parenting time visitation support, family skills development, and financial counseling—all delivered on unit-rate, hourly, or fixed-fee structures with performance metrics tied to family stability, successful reunification, child safety, and recidivism reduction. Issuing bodies mix state departments (child welfare, health, youth services) with county social service agencies, municipal departments, and public housing authorities; Michigan MDHHS appears as a particularly active repeat issuer across multiple RFPs covering regional family preservation contracts.

The code shows strong activity across the Midwest and West, with the heaviest recent concentration in Michigan, where MDHHS has solicited family preservation and family assistance services across more than two dozen counties since February 2026, followed by Washington State (Department of Children, Youth & Families and Health Care Authority), California (Los Angeles County, City of Alameda), and Florida (Monroe County). Representative current solicitations include the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services RFP #25-0062 for Prevention and Aftercare services (due October 20, 2026), seeking organizations to deliver strength-based, family-centered prevention and aftercare resources to vulnerable children and families across the county; the Washington State Department of Children, Youth & Families RFQ for Adolescent Transitional Living Program services in Region 6 (due August 20, 2026, with a mandatory pre-bid on July 16, 2026), requesting 24-hour residential care and independent living skills training for five male-identifying youth ages 16–21 with monthly compensation of $13,137 per bed plus tiered startup funding; and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services Request for Proposal 260000002008 for in-home family preservation services in Alpena and Montmorency Counties (due June 10, 2026), allocating $300,000 over three years for family preservation with hourly unit rates, $15,000 annual transportation, and $3,000 specific assistance. Set-asides and preferences vary by state—Washington applies 5–10% bid preferences for Washington Small Businesses, Veteran-Owned Businesses, and compliance with Executive Order 18-03; Michigan emphasizes best-value evaluation incorporating economic impact (minimum wage, health insurance coverage) alongside technical scoring; California and federal-funded Washington procurements require compliance with prevailing wage, Buy America, and federal accessibility standards.
