The Department of Veteran Affairs Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center, located at 5500 E. Kellogg, Wichita, KS 67218 and hereafter referred to as VA, requires Contractor to provide homeless veteran services through a Safe Haven model of residential care at a facility located within 25 miles of the above Medical Center. These services, not to exceed 20 Veterans at any one time, are to be provided to homeless Veterans as defined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The VA National Center on Homelessness among Veterans ( the Center ) will provide ongoing training for program development for both contract providers and VA staff. Contractor will be evaluated based on the Center s established evaluation protocol and program fidelity measures. The goal of the Safe Haven Healthcare for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) program is to provide housing and case management services to Veterans and facilitate their access to a broad range of medical, mental health, and rehabilitative services utilizing Safe Haven low demand model guidelines. The target population for this HCHV Contract Residential Care Safe Haven is chronically homeless, chronically mentally ill Veterans, Veterans with chronic substance abuse disorders and complex needs. Safe Haven Programs, either directly or through linkage with community and other VA services, provide time-limited services such as supporting mental health stabilization, Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment services, enhancement of independent living skills, vocational training, and employment services. Emphasis is placed on referral and placement in permanent housing or longer-term residential programs utilizing VA and/or community resources. Lengths of stay in Safe Haven typically range from 4 to 6 months (all references to days within this contract refer to calendar days unless otherwise specified as business days) with the option to extend based on clinical need. Eligibility will be determined by the VA, based on Veteran status; meeting the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act definition of homelessness (see http://www.hudhre.info/hearth/ for additional information); and an assessment by the VA Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) program resulting in a determination of making the Veteran highly vulnerable and requiring Safe Haven services. This is an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for the period November 27, 2027, to November 26, 2032, in up to four 12-month options, if exercised, in accordance with FAR 16.5. 2. BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW: The Secretary of the VA has set a zero-tolerance policy for homelessness within the Veteran population. As part of the Plan to End Homelessness among Veterans announced in late 2009, the Veterans Health Administration has been increasing both capacity of existing programs and services offered to program participants. The plan calls for utilizing new models of care not previously offered by VA. Recent national trends in service provision for the homeless outside of the VA system include the utilization of Safe Havens as an alternative to shelter care or as a placement after unsuccessful discharge from an in-patient or residential treatment program due to relapse-related issues. A is a form of supportive housing that serves hard-to-reach homeless persons with severe mental illnesses and/or substance use disorders. It is a low demand model of service delivery that allows clients to engage in treatment and services at their own pace. The VA s Plan to End Veteran Homelessness calls for enhancing current homeless service capacity as well as developing new programs and initiatives in concert with community and federal partners. This contract will enable a community provider to offer homeless Veterans services through a Safe Haven model of residential care. This model will offer services to homeless Veterans under the HCHV Contract Residential Care program enhanced by the services as defined in the PWS. Rapid stabilization of the Veterans medical, mental health, substance abuse and other psychosocial problems to place Veterans in other appropriate transitional or permanent housing within 4 to 6 months, with no more than 120 days without a formal written request by the Contractor for an extension which must be approved by the VA Liaison, is an expected outcome of this Contract. The community-based Contractor should have a minimum of 18 months experience with direct service to the homeless population and experience should be documented in the proposal. This contract will be awarded to a Contractor having an acceptable facility within 25 miles of the VA Medical Ce
