Specifically, the Agency is seeking qualified Bidders to provide one, two, or three of the following CISR services: Child Welfare Emergency Services (CWES), Foster Group Care Services (FGCS) (also referred to as Qualified Residential Treatment Programs (QRTP’s)), and/or Supervised Apartment Living Services (SAL) within one, multiple, or all five of the Agency’s defined geographic Service Areas (Attachment F). By combining CWES, FGCS/QRTP, and SAL into one RFP, the Agency is seeking innovative solutions to integrate services and create a system of care for Children requiring Emergency and/or Out-of-Home Placements.\nRFP responses must be submitted separately by service type (CWES, FGCS/QRTP, and SAL), and Contracts for each service (CWES, FGCS/QRTP, and SAL) will be awarded separately. Bidders are encouraged to provide more than one service. Bidders are expected to address Children’s safety, Permanency, and well-being in all aspects of care they are proposing to provide. Qualified Bidders will articulate how they will collaborate with other child welfare stakeholders and contractors to ensure continuity of care. Qualified Bidders will address maintaining family connections and preparing youth to discharge to a family-like setting.\nThe combined service array represents the Agency’s intent to provide and support child welfare services and juvenile justice services that:\nare Family focused\nare designed to build on Family strengths\nenhance parents’ or other caregivers’ capacity to protect and safely care for Children\nconnect families to community resources and informal support systems\nensure Children who age out of Foster Care have the skills and connections to successfully Transition to adulthood\nfollow the Family First Blueprint for Iowa’s Future Child Welfare System (Attachment G), Cultural Equity Alliance Guiding Principles (Attachment I), as well as the JCS’s Model of Practice (Attachment Q).\nare consistent with the principles of the Child and Family Service Review (CFSR) of Child safety, Permanency and well-being while encouraging flexibility, innovation, and use of Evidence-Based Practice strategies to build a comprehensive continuity of care system.\naddress the Risk Need Responsivity Principles\nutilize research driven practices that are informed by the review of Iowa specific data\nThe Agency held public conversations during the summer of 2021 regarding child welfare procurements. As previously indicated, awards resulting from this RFP will be made for each of the five geographic Service Areas (See the Service Area map in Attachment F). This is intended to facilitate the movement of Children back to their home communities to preserve connections to their families, home communities, schools, and community-based supports. The ideal place for Children is with their families; when it is not possible to keep a Child in the Child’s own home, keeping the Child as close to that home is a preferred alternative. The Agency and its JCS partners will focus on this principle, intending to make referrals to contractors within each Child’s Service Area whenever possible in order to preserve and reinforce each Child’s relationships and connections in the Child’s community.  The Iowa child welfare and juvenile justice systems are interconnected; youth served by both utilize the same out of home services array, including CISR programs.
