The primary objective is to support individuals struggling with substance use disorders by providing timely, professional intervention and treatment pathway recommendations.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the procurement documents, the opportunity appears open to qualified organizations capable of meeting the ADT certification requirements. The contract is specifically focused on Caroline County, though the procurement is being managed through the Maryland state system. No incumbent vendor information or current contractor details are provided in the available documentation. The contract appears to be a single-position procurement with no explicit budget range mentioned. Potential bidders should note the requirement for an in-person, full-time specialist with specific professional certification in substance abuse treatment. Organizations interested in responding must ensure their proposed counselor meets the ADT certification standard and can effectively interface with local department of social services case workers to provide comprehensive substance use disorder screening and referral services.
