North Los Angeles County Regional Center (NLACRC) is now accepting proposal submissions for the Social Recreation, Camp, and Non-Medical Therapies Request for Vendorization (RFV) cycle.
Entities wishing to develop a service identified below may submit their proposal following the instructions provided here. Submission of a proposal is not the vendorization process itself, but the first step to receiving technical assistance with the process at NLACRC. Proposals are reviewed and eligible applicants will be selected to move to the next stage of your vendorization. All applicants must demonstrate that they possess the necessary relevant professional experience and organizational capacity to create and sustain high quality, effective, long-term services, that are responsive to the needs of the individuals served.
Applicants must plan to have a physical office located in the NLACRC catchment area. In addition, it is highly recommended that applicants be able to provide services in a minimum of one language other than English (see Languages listed below). Please Note: There are no start-up funds associated with this RFV. Applicants are responsible for 100% of the initial start-up costs and continued maintenance of the business. However, please note that per regulation, pursuant to Title 17 section 54322, (d) (10), Regional Centers cannot guarantee referrals.
