RFP-OFA03-21 - Community Services for the Elderly

The County, through its Office for the Aging (“OCOFA”), is seeking proposals from qualified Offerors to provide efficient and cost-effective services to eligible County residents age sixty (60) and over (“60+ Seniors”) through the Community Services for the Elderly Program (“CSE”) as more fully described below.

• Enable the elderly to remain in their homes and participate in family and community life;
• Reduce the reliance on institutional care;
• Provide cost-effective, non-medical services;
• Enable access to necessary information and support; and
• Promote the continued involvement of informational caregivers.
