The ITN seeks proposals from community, faith-based, not-for-profit organizations, LLCs, and/or divisions of local government to design, create, develop, implement, manage, and coordinate the local delivery of residential and non-residential statewide services for CINS/FINS youth and families, including contracting with local service providers and providing statewide support services, data collection and reporting, management, and enforcement. The CINS/FINS residential services are for youth between 10 and 18 years old, and the non-residential services are for youth between 6 and 18 years old. The Statewide Respite Care Services are for youth between 10 and 18 years old who have been charged with domestic violence, are on probation and referred by DJJ, or are in need of respite services and have been issued a pre-delinquency citation.

The ITN requires the submission of a Notice of Intent to Submit a Reply by a specific deadline. The DJJ is seeking proposals that will deliver all service components, including CINS/FINS, Statewide Respite Care Services, and evidence-based or promising practices delinquency prevention programming.
