RFGA - Mediation & Parenting Time Support Services

The State of Oregon has issued a Request for Grant Application (RFGA) for Mediation & Parenting Time Support Services, with proposals due on June 16, 2025. This procurement appears to be seeking qualified service providers to deliver comprehensive mediation and parental support services, likely focusing on child custody and family dispute resolution. The solicitation includes multiple attachments that outline detailed requirements, including a sample agreement, budget forms, and various certification documents. Prospective applicants must carefully review the comprehensive documentation, which includes specific instructions for electronic submission through OregonBuys. Key evaluation criteria are expected to be embedded in the main RFGA document, with potential emphasis on organizational capacity, service delivery methodology, and experience in family mediation services. Respondents will need to complete several mandatory attachments, including the Applicant Information and Certification form, Disclosure Exemption Affidavit, and a COBID Certification and Outreach Plan.

The procurement appears to have specific provisions for disadvantaged and certified businesses, with the COBID (Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity) Certification attachment suggesting opportunities for minority-owned, women-owned, and emerging small businesses. The solicitation includes a Responsibility Inquiry document and a Certificate of Non-Supplantation, indicating potential restrictions or additional qualifications for respondents. While the exact budget range is not explicitly stated in the provided metadata, the presence of a detailed budget form suggests there is a defined funding allocation for these services. The procurement seems designed to support nonprofit and community-based organizations specializing in family mediation and parenting time support. Potential respondents will need to demonstrate not only technical expertise in mediation services but also organizational stability, compliance capabilities, and a commitment to inclusive service delivery. The comprehensive documentation suggests a rigorous selection process with multiple layers of organizational and programmatic evaluation.
