RFI for Youth Mental Health Prevention Services

The City and County of Honolulu, Hawaii is seeking information on youth mental health prevention services to address growing challenges from social pressures, trauma exposure, family stress, and limited access to early intervention. The agency requires prevention-oriented programs designed to build resilience, strengthen protective factors, and reduce risks to improve long-term youth outcomes. This request for information explores effective service models, including evidence-based practices, culturally grounded approaches, community-driven locally informed programming, and hybrid or innovative delivery methods. The scope of interest covers recommended service models, target populations such as specific age ranges or high-risk groups, and various delivery approaches including community-based, virtual, mobile outreach, or hybrid models. Only United States organizations are eligible to submit responses for this opportunity. The agency expects the performance of any resulting work to occur offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to understand budget expectations and program structures. Interested parties must submit all questions regarding this request no later than July 1, 2026. Respondents may submit their final packages digitally via email or through the designated online portal.
