The Agency retains full ownership of all final products in Microsoft Word, PDF, and video formats and has the right to share materials with current, future, and potential PATH subrecipients.

The total estimated funding available is $10,152.00; proposals exceeding this amount will not be considered. Funding is contingent upon federal allocations and subject to reduction, elimination, or increase at the Agency's discretion. The State reserves the right to negotiate final contracted amounts and deliverables. The contract term does not exceed two years, with mutual approval permitting extensions. Work is expected to begin March 2027, with a tentative award date in January 2027.
