- Description
- The Program Support Center in conjunction with the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR) intends to procure operation and support services, which shall be responsible to develop and maintain Regional or National Case Coordination Program(s) that provide child welfare based recommendations on individual Unaccompanied Children (UC) cases, particularly in the areas of safe and timely release, identification of children with special needs and development of corresponding recommendations, and placement recommendations. One of ORR's main functions is to provide temporary residential care, in the least restrictive setting possible, and other related services to UC in ORR custody. Under the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, "UAC shall be promptly placed in the least restrictive setting that is in the best interest of the child, taking into consideration risk of harm to the child and/or others and risk of flight." In addition, ORR is responsible for identifying, funding, overseeing, and monitoring state-licensed facilities that serve UC; maintaining statistical information and data on each child; and compiling and updating an annual list of professionals or entities qualified to provide legal services. As of March 2016, ORR oversees a national network of over 100 licensed care providers, including shelters, group homes, staff-secure/secure facilities, foster care programs and residential treatment centers through contracts and cooperative agreements. ORR care providers are required to be licensed by the state in which they reside and are encouraged to pursue additional accreditation through the Council on Accreditation. They must also comply with ORR policies, protocols and procedures, as detailed in their individual Cooperative Agreement/Statement of Work and ORR policies and procedures. The majority of care providers are located in Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. The solicitation will be available for download after 9 January 2017.
