5-Attachment D-- References.docx

Attachment D is a reference form document for the Ventura County Behavioral Health (VCBH) Veterans Mentorship Program Request for Proposal (RFP). The document provides a template for vendors to list three professional references, requiring details such as organization name, contact information, project/partnership description, staff assigned to the referenced project, and project dates and dollar values. This reference attachment is part of the competitive procurement process for selecting a qualified provider to develop and implement a Veterans Mentorship Program (VMP) in Ventura County, California.

The RFP seeks a single provider to assist veterans and emergency first responders with mental health and ancillary services during their transition from active military service to civilian life. While specific pricing terms are not detailed in this attachment, the reference form suggests the county is seeking a comprehensive and experienced vendor with a proven track record of successfully delivering similar veteran support services. The reference requirements indicate that VCBH will evaluate potential contractors based on their past performance, professional relationships, and demonstrated capability to effectively support veteran populations through targeted mental health interventions and transition assistance programs.
