Specifications include, but are not limited to: This request for proposals is focused on operating the medical sobering center located within the Gibson Health Hub at 4500 Gibson SE; Albuquerque, NM, 87108. The Department will allocate up to $730,000 annually, for a potential three year total of $2,190,000, for proposed Projects supporting the operation of the medical sobering center. Additionally, the Department will allocate up to $1,763,500 in SAMHSA funds for start-up costs and the first year of operating costs that, with a no cost one year extension, will end September 30, 2025. The total amount for services through September 30, 2025 is expected to be up to $2,493,500, with $730,000 allocated annually thereafter. In order to effectively address these service needs, Offerors must demonstrate a connection between the proposed activities and outputs to the identified outcomes, and define metrics and measurement tools to reliably assess progress toward achieving the identified outcomes. The proposed project may be required to work collaboratively with other entities as identified and requested by the City. The purpose of the City of Albuquerque’s Medical Sobering Center is to support the development of a first responder and law enforcement diversion program aimed at providing immediate low-barrier access to substance use and related services, while also reducing a growing 9-1-1 emergency response rate. The medical sobering center will serve individuals experiencing Substance Use Disorder (SUD) who have moderate to severe alcohol and/or other drug intoxication, may have survived an overdose, and may be experiencing homelessness. The Medical Sobering Center will be used to (1) divert individuals with moderate acuity intoxication from overcrowded emergency departments and jail to a safe place for monitoring and to sober-up and recover from the effects of acute intoxication; (2) establish a front-door access to services including treatment, recovery supports, case management, recovery housing, and other unmet social needs to ultimately end the cycle of addiction; and (3) reduce morbidity and mortality related to substance misuse/SUD by improving health outcomes and, in turn, reducing the need for emergency response.
