Crisis Respite Capacity Building Funding Opportunity
Strengthening Families Washington (SFWA) at the Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) is pleased to announce that DCYF has released a Request for Proposal (RFP) to develop crisis respite capacity in Washington State. Crisis respite is short-term care for children when their parents or caregivers need a break for any reason, whether they are exhausted and worn-out from the demands of parenting or when they experience difficult life circumstances or other unexpected events and have no safe alternatives for care.
We invite proposals from organizations who are interested in developing crisis respite capacity in Washington State communities, Tribal Nations, Recognized American Indian Organizations (RAIOs) and Native Serving Organizations through either in Option 1, crisis respite exploration and planning, or Option 2, implementation.
DCYF will post this Solicitation, and all Amendments and announcements relating to this Solicitation, on WEBS. You can access WEBS at https://fortress.wa.gov/es/webscust. All bidders must be registered in WEBS to download this solicitation and receive notifications regarding amendments to the solicitation.
The deadline for submitting proposals is May 8, 2024, by 4 p.m.
We will host a prebid conference on April 10, 2024, at 10 a.m., Pacific Daylight Time. This will be an opportunity to learn more about the RFP and ask questions.
