Event Name:

RFP Family & Client Education & Support Program

Description:

The County of Sonoma Department of Health Services (Department) is pleased to invite you to respond to a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Family and Client Education and Support Program.

Overview:

The Behavioral Health Services Act (BHSA) modernizes California's behavioral health system to improve access, integration, and outcomes across mental health and substance use disorder services. BHSA emphasizes equity, early access to care, and recovery-oriented systems that support individuals and families in achieving long-term wellness. Within this framework, Full-Service Partnership (FSP) programs provide intensive, wraparound services to individuals with significant behavioral health challenges. These services are designed to support stability, recovery, and community integration through a "whatever it takes" approach.

The Family & Client Education & Support Program is a critical component of the FSP continuum. This program is designed to strengthen the capacity of individuals and their families to navigate the behavioral health system, build resilience, and actively participate in recovery.
