Released

---

The DOC seeks qualified vendors to implement a jail-based program model that will:

• Provide comprehensive, individualized transition planning services, including assistance with housing, employment, obtaining identification, accessing public benefits, and connecting to community-based resources.

• Deliver reentry-focused services on topics such as job readiness, interviewing skills, financial literacy, resume preparation, as well as attitudes and beliefs.

• Offer targeted support for special populations, including emerging adults, women, veterans, individuals with mental health needs, and LGBTQ+ individuals.

• Ensure a seamless transition from jail to the community by affording transportation to community-based organizations and transitional housing for sentenced individuals and detained individuals, whenever possible.

• Develop a strategy to provide effective discharge planning to detainees, whose release dates are usually unknown, including a connection on the day of release.

• Support individuals sentenced to state prison through their transition process.

• Provide enhanced wraparound services to individuals housed in specialized reentry-focused housing areas.

• Provide tailored transition-planning services to LGBTQ+ individuals, preferably in partnership with an organization that specializes in serving this population.

• Collaborate with external reentry partners to create a continuum of care that extends beyond incarceration.
