FY27 RFP Release

The Caroline Human Services Council is excited to announce the release of the RFP's for: 

• FY27 Attendance Intervention for Chronically Absent Students

  The Attendance Intervention for Chronically Absent Students program will provide targeted support to K-12 students who are chronically absent or at risk of chronic absenteeism. Attendance interventions will address individual, school, and community-based factors that contribute to chronic absenteeism, with a focus on mentoring and relationship-based interventions, including Success Mentors. Using evidence-based and research-supported strategies, the program will identify barriers and connect students and families with individualized supports and community resources. Services may include food and housing assistance, mental health services, transportation support, and connections to Community School Coordinators. The goal is to reduce barriers, strengthen student engagement, and improve regular school attendance.
