Behavior Modification Program.pdf

This document is a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) for a Behavior Modification Program. The program aims to provide services that help individuals develop healthy coping mechanisms and improve decision-making skills. The DHHS is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to deliver evidence-based behavioral therapy, counseling, and support services. The contract period is for three years with two optional one-year extensions. Proposals are due by 5:00 PM on June 15, 2023, and a mandatory pre-proposal conference will be held on May 30, 2023. The DHHS anticipates awarding the contract by August 1, 2023.

The RFP specifies that the budget for this program is $5 million annually, with funding sources including federal and state grants. The DHHS has set aside 20% of the contract value for minority-owned and women-owned business enterprises (M/WBE) participation. The current incumbent provider, ABC Counseling Services, has been delivering the program for the past two years. Vendors must demonstrate experience in providing similar behavioral health services and the ability to meet the program's performance metrics and reporting requirements.
