Description
The New Jersey Department of Children and Families is establishing a three‑year Qualified Technical Assistance Provider (QTAP) pool to deliver supplemental technical assistance—including workshop facilitation, coaching, continuous quality improvement, and trauma‑informed, culturally responsive training—to DCF‑contracted service providers across the state. No direct funding is attached to this RFQ; vendors are pre‑qualified for future contracts that service providers may award. Applicants must submit a three‑PDF package (Statement of Acceptance, Narrative Response to 19 questions, and Supporting Documents) by the October 14 deadline and meet eligibility criteria such as good standing on existing contracts, proper licensing, and required documentation.
• Scope: Workshop facilitation, coaching, CQI, training design/delivery, trauma‑informed and culturally responsive methods, delivered in‑person, virtual, or blended formats.
• Target audience: DCF‑funded programs (e.g., Family Success Centers, Kinship Navigator, School‑Based Youth Services) and their staff at all levels.
• Submission requirements: Three PDFs (signed statement, 5‑page narrative, supporting docs), AOR form by Oct 7, and compliance certifications (debarment, SAM, organizational chart, policies, letters of support).
• No guaranteed contract or budget; selection results in placement on the QTAP list for three years, after which vendors may be contracted by service providers on a negotiated fee basis.
