RFP for Opioid and other Substance Use Disorder Interventions that are Led, Designed and Operated within and by Highly Impacted Communities

The Allegheny County Department of Human Services (DHS), along with partners in the County’s Department of Health and Children’s Initiatives, sought Proposals from qualified Proposers to create or expand opioid use disorder (OUD) and other substance use disorder (SUD) interventions led, designed and operated by and within highly impacted communities.

More specifically, DHS sought Proposals from Proposers looking to (1) initiate new programs that connected communities with informal OUD/SUD harm reduction information and services, or (2) expanded similar, established programs and services. Regardless of whether a Proposal was to initiate a new program or expand an established one, the work is focused within and led by a community that is disproportionately impacted.
