The Florida Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive residential commitment program located in Citrus County, seeking a provider to operate a 32-bed high-risk and 64-bed maximum-risk residential program for male youth aged 15-21. The program will focus on males requiring Mental Health Overlay Services (MHOS) and/or Substance Abuse Treatment Overlay Services (SAOS), with services to be delivered either in a Department-owned building at 2855 W. Woodland Ridge Drive in Lecanto or in a Respondent-owned/leased facility within Florida. Required services include innovative delinquency programming, mental health treatment, substance abuse services, academic programming, career and technical education, recreation, and transition services. Key objectives involve rehabilitation, community safety, offender accountability, and youth competency development. Mandatory procurement dates include a site visit on September 22, 2025, proposal submissions due on October 27, 2025 at 2:00 PM EDT, and an anticipated contract award on December 15, 2025. The contract term is scheduled from September 1, 2026, to August 31, 2029, with potential renewal options.
The procurement offers potential preference for certain business designations, including Drug Free Workplace, Certified Minority Business Enterprise (CMBE), Service Disabled Veteran's Business Enterprise, and Florida-based businesses. Respondents must submit detailed documentation demonstrating financial viability, past performance in residential commitment programs, and compliance with specific regulatory requirements. The maximum per diem rates are $359.19 for filled beds and $339.19 for unfilled beds, with funding provided through state appropriations. Bidders must provide a comprehensive technical proposal limited to 70 pages, addressing program components such as sex-specific services, rehabilitative justice programming, and behavior management. The facility includes extensive infrastructure with six classrooms, thirty staff offices, ninety-six single-occupancy sleeping rooms, a fully functional kitchen, and a comprehensive 121-camera video surveillance system. Additional requirements include outside party agreements for mental health and substance abuse services, compliance with Florida Administrative Code rules, and adherence to evidence-based practices aimed at preparing youth for successful community reintegration.
