The Kitsap County government authority in Port Orchard, Washington, is seeking providers to deliver mental health, chemical dependency, and therapeutic court programs services. The agency is trying to improve the health status and wellbeing of county residents while reducing the incidence and severity of chemical dependency and mental health disorders in both adults and youth.

The scope of work covers enhancing diversion approaches, practices, and programs for individuals with behavioral health disorders. The selected providers must also improve the availability and coordination of in-jail behavioral health screening, assessment, treatment, and referral services. Additionally, the project requires expanding behavioral health treatment providers, approaches, and options for high utilizers of these services. The agency limits eligibility to onshore organizations based in the United States. Bidders must perform all work offsite. The contract period will span one year, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget. Bidders must submit their responses digitally via email or online, though the source does not specify the evaluation criteria or key deadline dates.
