Contract value

$50,000,000

No explicit contract value is disclosed. A typical statewide residential group‑care contract of this scope (enhanced services, multiple facilities, five‑year term) can range from $8 million to $12 million per year, depending on the number of beds, intensity of therapeutic services, and geographic distribution. Assuming an average of 30 facilities each receiving roughly $300,000‑$350,000 annually for enhanced care, the annual spend would be about $9‑$10.5 million. Over a five‑year base period this yields roughly $45‑$52.5 million. Adding potential renewals (up to four extra years) could push the total toward $80 million, but the base contract value is best estimated at **≈ $50 million**.
