About this opportunity
The County of Orange Health Care Agency is soliciting proposals for Adult Peer Support, Wellness and Supported Employment Centers across the Central, West, and South Regions of Orange County. The procurement seeks qualified organizations to provide consumer-driven wellness programs for adults over 18 with mental illness and potential co-occurring disorders who are relatively stable in their recovery. Key service deliverables include personalized socialization, community integration, benefits assistance, educational opportunities, and supported employment services. Respondents must demonstrate experience in mental health services, meet minimum qualifications such as not being on federal exclusion lists, and provide comprehensive documentation. The proposal evaluation will be conducted in two phases, utilizing a points-based scoring system that assesses experience, services, performance objectives, staffing, facility, and budget, with potential additional points awarded during an interview/presentation phase. Critical dates include a proposal submission deadline of February 7, 2025 at 4:30 pm, an anticipated Board of Supervisors award date of April 22, 2025, and service commencement on July 1, 2025.
The contract will be funded through Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) funding, with the County reserving the right to make multiple awards and potentially renew the contract. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned, the RFP emphasizes a recovery-oriented, peer-supported approach that prioritizes members' autonomy and personal growth. The contract period is from July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026, and will be structured as a cost reimbursement type agreement. Although specific budget ranges were not detailed in the provided documents, the budget forms indicate potential funding sources including Medi-Cal, Medicare, county discretionary funds, and MHSA funding. The contract will require the successful respondent to maintain detailed financial records, submit cost reports, and comply with comprehensive regulatory requirements including maintaining necessary licenses, adhering to federal and state laws, and ensuring proper handling of client information and privacy.
Opportunity text
The County of Orange, Health Care Agency (hereinafter referred to as "County"), is soliciting proposals from qualified organizations (hereinafter referred to as "Respondents") for Adult Peer Support, Wellness and Supported Employment Centers. The primary goal is to provide consumer-driven Wellness Center programs in the Central, West, and South Regions of Orange County for adults over 18 years of age, who have a mental illness and who may also have a co-occurring disorder, and who are relatively stable independently working on their recovery, but still require a support system to assist them in maintaining their stability while continuing to progress in their personal growth and development. The program shall focus on personalized socialization, relationship building, community integration, assistance with maintaining benefits, providing educational opportunities, setting employment goals and providing supported employment assistance. The existing service system is inundated with a vast number of members, many of whom are relatively stable and in search of the final steps to establishing recovery on a solid support base. Most often, the needs of this population are overlooked, and members often receive medication only services in a traditional treatment setting. Each Wellness Center shall provide members with a solid support base, help to maintain their stability, and provide support options not previously available within the public behavioral health service delivery system. The successful Respondent(s) shall clearly demonstrate in their proposal the ability to provide the requested services and how their organization's experience will help members solidify their social integration, community participation, educational goals and obtain competitive or volunteer employment.. Respondents must meet the minimum qualifications and requirements as set forth within the RFP and be capable of providing services identified in the Scope of Work herein.
