INTRODUCTION

The Napa County Health and Human Services Agency’s Behavioral Health Division

(hereafter “County”) is issuing this 4th Round Request for Proposals (RFP) from qualified

agencies/organizations to provide Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Prevention and

Early Intervention (PEI) programs and services. The County intends to offer a single, or

multiple awards, to community-based organizations. The release of this RFP is in

conjunction with the robust Health and Human Services Agency’s Public Health Division

Community Health Assessment’s (CHA) findings on community behavioral health needs

listed in the table below which are consistent with MHSA Community Planning Process

(CPP) input.

This RFP outlines the information necessary to understand the competitive

selection process and the required documentation necessary for the submission of

proposals. All interested proposers must meet the requirements specified in this RFP.

Proposers must have qualified staff on hand for this project and be ready to begin

work as soon as possible. The County reserves the right to issue an award under this

RFP to a single or multiple individual(s) and organization(s), at its sole discretion.

The County, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to reject all proposals.

All programs are intended to address community needs and prevent the development of

mental illness. PEI programs have unique strategies and reporting criteria; therefore, it is

highly recommended that applicants read the California Code of Regulations (CCR) Sections

3700-3750 MHSA PEI Regulations and Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) Sections 5840.5

to 5840.8 SB1004 PEI Regulations for more information about required demographic and

outcome reporting.

health services, particularly bilingual and bicultural

older adults in Napa County.

- Identify and amplify non-traditional methods of mental
