This contract is an informal RFP issued by Cuyahoga County to provide a residential summer camp for trauma‑exposed youth (ages 8‑17) during the 2024 summer season. The vendor must deliver a five‑night, six‑day camp for 36‑40 campers, integrate the Camp HOPE America evidence‑based curriculum, meet specified staffing ratios, provide pork‑free USDA‑compliant meals, ensure ADA accessibility, and secure extensive insurance coverage. The County supplies adult staff and volunteers but restricts them from leading specialized activities. All proposals were due by March 1 2024, and the County will award the contract based on best value, not lowest cost.
• Scope: 5‑night residential camp, 36‑40 youth, 1 counselor per 3 campers, curriculum integration, meals, safety, and ADA compliance.
