Clinical Support Program Request for Proposals (RFP)

The Administration for Children's Services ("ACS") is releasing an RFP for its Clinical Support Program. ACS' Child Protective Specialist Teams (CPS) are based in each borough office and respond to over 50,000 suspected cases of abuse and neglect each year. With this RFP, ACS is seeking to contract with providers that can offer clinical staff to provide the City’s CPS Teams access to quality expertise in mental health, intimate partner violence, and substance use. Ultimately, the goal for the providers and the CPS Teams working with the identified families is to increase the capacity of parents and caretakers in complex circumstances to facilitate and enhance the well-being and safety of their children. In addition to improving child welfare case planning and family functioning where substance use, intimate partner violence, and/or mental health challenges exist, the providers with specialized expertise in these areas will enhance training of child welfare staff and facilitate engagement and referrals to necessary follow-up community services. This new program will provide intensive services and, in appropriate circumstances, will involve direct family engagement.
