AI Summary
Contra Costa County seeks providers for mental health services targeting CalWORKs and Welfare-to-Work participants to support their well-being and employment readiness.
The Contra Costa County Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD or County) is soliciting proposals from qualified mental health service providers to deliver comprehensive assessment, evidence-based treatment, behavioral health support, and liaison services for California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) adults and children. EHSD CalWORKs provides temporary financial assistance and other services to economically disadvantaged families with dependent children. Some adults who get CalWORKs are required to participate in the Welfare-to-Work (WTW) program. The intent of the WTW program is to remove barriers while providing employment and training services to all eligible adult recipients of CalWORKs cash aid. WTW is designed to assist families toward a path of work and self-reliance. As a condition of eligibility for CalWORKs, adults are required to work or participate in WTW activities that will assist in achieving their employment and educational goals. Mental health support services are among the key resources available to CalWORKs recipients to help them overcome barriers and successfully achieve these goals. **Solicitation Type**: RFP - Request for Proposal (Formal) **Source ID**: PU.AG.USA.2749388.C19636326 **Piggyback Contract**: No **Question Acceptance Deadline**: 03/09/2026 08:00 PM EDT **Questions are submitted online**: Yes **Bid Submission Type**: Electronic Bid Submission **Additional Bidding Instructions**: Please see FORM B: Proposal Checklist for complete list of required documents.
