Description: This Request for Proposal (RFP) is issued to solicit applications for funding to support 2 SOS (Safe Options Support) Critical Time Intervention (CTI) Teams to operate in New York City (NYC). SOS CTI Teams will use an evidence-based CTI approach to provide intensive outreach, engagement, and care coordination services to the estimated ~3,500 street homeless individuals in NYC identified by State and City partners including outreach teams, law enforcement, hospitals, and others in close contact with the individual in need. SOS CTI Teams will be comprised of licensed clinicians, care managers, peer specialists, and registered nurses. Services will be provided for up to 12 months, pre- and post-housing placement, with an intensive initial outreach and engagement period that includes multiple visits per week, each for several hours. Participants will learn self-management skills and master activities of daily living on the road to self-efficacy and recovery. The Teams’ outreach will facilitate connection to treatment and support services. The SOS CTI Teams will follow the CTI model – a time-limited, evidence-based service that helps vulnerable individuals during periods of transition. The teams will be serving individuals as they transition from street homelessness to housing. CTI promotes community integration, self-advocacy, and continuity of care by ensuring that the member has strong ties to their professional and non-professional support systems during these critical periods. It is a team-based model that incorporates professionals and peers. The team works with members and their professional and non-professional support networks to build skills and strengthen supports so that so that care can successfully be transferred, and SOS services terminated, within 12 months. SOS CTI Teams will work in close collaboration with a SOS Referral Hub, NYC’s Street Homeless Outreach Teams, hospitals, and others to ensure that those individuals who are in greatest need for this intensive service are identified, referred, and immediately connected to services.
All applications must be submitted through the Grants Gateway.
