Bid Description:
Through this Request for Proposal (RFP) the Agency of Human Services/Family Services Division (hereinafter the “State”) is seeking to establish contracts with one or more companies that can provide Due Process Review Hearings. The Vermont Department for Children and Families (DCF), through the Family Services Division (FSD), works to promote the safety, well-being, and healthy development of Vermont’s children and youth. FSD partners with families, caregivers, agencies, and communities to support children and youth and promote law-abiding behavior. In support of this mission, FSD seeks to contract with a qualified individual or entity to serve as an arbitrator for Due Process Reviews. These hearings involve children and youth appealing their administrative placement in a secure facility in Vermont. Children and youth who are administratively placed in a secure facility are entitled to due process protections. Any child or youth who remains in placement beyond eight days must receive a hearing to determine whether they meet the criteria for continued placement in the facility.
