Request for Proposal Coach Up for Harris County Procurement Contracts

Redefining Youth Justice Coalition

This hands-on session will help community organizations understand how to effectively respond to funding opportunities with Harris County.

On February 10, 2021, the Harris County Commissioners Court approved a groundbreaking multi-million-dollar Youth Justice Community Reinvestment Fund. The first of its kind in Texas, the Fund will re-envision public safety for youth in Harris County by investing in community programs that keep youth from becoming involved in crime and prevent youth incarceration. The Fund aims to address racial disparities in juvenile detention and is part of a bold new approach to justice that begins with investing in communities impacted by incarceration.The Reinvestment Fund is comprised of funds initially earmarked for juvenile probation, as well as $2 million from the county's General Fund. The Fund will invest in grassroots service providers based in neighborhoods most impacted by the juvenile justice system and employ staff who reflect the youth and families they serve. The Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, which has been a partner in this effort, is fully committed to this innovative approach.To facilitate an accessible "get-ready" period to prepare interested organizations to bid on contracts to serve as the Fund's backbone organization and third- party evaluator, the Refining Youth Justice Coaltioin and the Justice Administration Department are hosting this Coach Up. Once hired, the backbone organization will select grassroots service providers to fund, strengthen, and coach for the pilot project's duration.
