The County of Riverside is seeking proposals from qualified parties to provide SafeCare Services, an evidenced-based in-home parenting education program. The program consists of eighteen weekly sessions for each family, and the content for the in-home parenting sessions is delivered in three separate modules. The modules include home safety training, child health care needs, and parent-child/parent-infant interactions. The curriculum targets parents/caregivers who are at-risk, have been reported for child maltreatment, and/or have open dependency cases.
• The program aims to improve parents/caregivers' skills in several domains.
• The services will be provided in the home environment of the at-risk families.
• The County of Riverside posts all bidding opportunities on two websites: www.purchasing.co.riverside.ca.us and www.publicpurchase.com.
• The contract was tentatively awarded to California Family Life Center and MarSell Consulting & MHS.
