Dear Vendor:
The Alabama Department of Mental Health (ADMH) is soliciting proposals to provide prevention,
treatment, or recovery support services through the ADMH Opioid Settlement Grant Program.
Request for Proposals (RFP) will be accepted until 2:00 pm on Monday, August 24, 2026.
The submission of a proposal does not guarantee the award of a contract. Any contract resulting from
the proposal is not effective until it has received all required governmental approvals and signatures. In
addition, the selected vendor shall not begin performing work under this contract until notified to do so
by the departmental contracting agent.
When submitting a proposal, please read the entire RFP document and return your proposal in the
requested format. All proposals must be type-written, formatted in ink, and containing an original
signature. Only those RFP documents meeting the submission requirements will be approved for scoring.
Submissions should be delivered to:
AL Department of Mental Health
Office of Contracts & Purchasing
100 North Union Street, Suite 570
Montgomery, AL 36104
MAILING NOTE: Proposals may be sent via Regular US Postal Service (USPS) Mail,
Express/Overnight USPS Mail, commercial delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, or hand delivered by
the closing date and time. Emailed or faxed responses are not accepted. All US Postal mail, including
express/overnight mail dispatched to any State agency is processed through the State mail facility before
it is forwarded to the appropriate State agency/Office of Contracts, thus delaying its arrival to the
department. By using the USPS, you assume the risk of delay that may result in your proposal being
received late; late proposals received after the deadline will be considered untimely and ineligible
for review. Postmarks of the date mailed are insufficient; the proposal must physically be received at the
listed office by the date and time specified - regardless of the delivery service used. A receipt indicating
proposal is received at RSA Union Building does not denote receipt by the Office of Contracts.
Sincerely,
Leola Rogers
