Q201--Boots on the Ground Services for Community Program Support

The Veterans Affairs Pacific Islands Health Care System is seeking a vendor to deliver “Boots on the Ground” community program support for Pacific Islander veterans. The contractor will staff at least five community health workers in each of four geographic regions (continental U.S., Oahu, other Hawaiian Islands, and the broader Pacific) at a combined 2.0 FTE per region, provide a senior director with expertise in Pacific Island cultural and health issues, and use the CPIVH data platform to capture outreach results. The effort aims to identify veterans not using VA services, educate them about VA health benefits, and improve access through culturally‑sensitive engagement. • Provide ≥5 community health workers per region (total ≈20 workers) operating at partial‑time (2.0 FTE per region). • Supply a senior director to develop education materials and oversee cultural relevance. • Utilize CPIVH’s data platform for reporting; VA staff will maintain the platform. • Target Pacific Island veteran population across four distinct regions. • Contract administered by VA Network Contracting Office 21; solicitation to be downloaded from SAM.gov.
