Description
The County of Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) is seeking nonprofit or public‑entity service providers to deliver “Partnerships for Families” (PFF) services – short‑term, family‑centered interventions aimed at reducing child abuse and neglect. Ten contracts will be awarded: one for each of the eight Service Planning Areas (SPAs) and two county‑wide contracts for Asian Pacific Islander (API) and American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) communities. Contracts run Jan 1 2028 – Dec 31 2028 with up to four one‑year renewal options. Annual funding per contract ranges from roughly $400 K to $1.8 M, funded entirely by state realignment funds. Providers must be 501(c)(3) nonprofits (or public entities), have a minimum of five years recent experience delivering comparable family social services, maintain a local administrative office, and meet additional cultural‑competency requirements for API and AI/AN contracts. Proposals are due Dec 18 2026; a virtual proposer’s conference is scheduled Oct 29 2026.
