Attachment 1 - Solicitation 9594CS21Q0048 Amendment 0001

Questions and Answers

Question 1: I just wanted to verify whether a unit is equal to 1 hour. I see the annual hours looks like it’s a total of 364 hours per year, but I wasn’t sure if the unit is equal to 1 hour. Any clarification you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Answer 1: A Unit is a Session. A Session includes pre- and post-session activities, which are approximately 10 minutes in length, and the actual Group Session activity (Therapy or Religious

Services) which is approximately 50 minutes in length. As such, a Session is approximately 1 hour in length.
