Sacramento County Department of Homeless Services and Housing has released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for weather response for persons experiencing homelessness. This RFQ is now open for your submissions. The deadline is July 14th 2023 at 5:00PM.
We know that the impacts of climate change are felt most acutely by those community members most regularly exposed to the elements. Persons experiencing homelessness, particularly those living unsheltered, experience disproportionate health and safety impacts from Sacramento County’s rain, cold, wind, heat and air quality. In addition, we understand warming and cooling centers specifically will be utilized by a diversity of community members (housed and unhoused) impacted by the inclement weather.
As a result, Sacramento County’s Department of Homeless Services & Housing is exploring partnerships with community-based organizations to support the health and safety of persons experiencing homelessness during weather events.
The RFQ Project can be found here: https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/saccounty/projects/48468
Information Sessions:
For those interested in pursuing partnerships with other organizations as a part of this effort, we will have space during the information sessions to network and share interests in partnerships.
There is also a public Q&A and form on the OpenGov project to provide feedback & questions directly. Here is the pdf should you have an interest in reviewing the content in that version before responding through OpenGov.
