Request for Letters of Interest
Camping, Social Recreation, and Other Services
Effective July 1, 2021, Welfare & Institutions Code section 4648.5 restored regional center authority to fund camping, social recreation activities, educational services for children 3-17, and non-medical therapies such as specialized recreation, art, dance, and music.
WRC is committed to seeking and developing resources that are inclusive, accessible, and available to individuals supported by WRC that are in their own communities, in their own language, and that will support the needs and wants of those who participate. WRC is actively engaging with our community to identify resources for these restored services and vendoring providers to begin offering services to our families.
Westside Regional Center is accepting Letters of Interest (LOI) to consider for vendorization for the following services:
- Camps and Camping Services
- Social Recreation
- Education Services for children 3-17
- Nonmedical therapies such as specialized recreation, art, dance, and music
*Please note that these submissions are not eligible for start-up funding.
Please submit the following 4 documents:
- Letter of interest
- Resume(s) for the administration and staff providing services for non-medical therapies
- A completed DS 1891 form (Applicant/Vendor Disclosure Statement)
- Brief service description or brochure/program information
Letters of Interest will be reviewed by the Community Services Department and if eligible, may move forward to the next stage of development. Please ensure your letter includes your service location address, business address, best contact information including phone and email address. If you’re interested in becoming a vendor, our team will request documents including your business license, commercial and liability insurances, and a vendor packet as applicable. We look forward to working with you should you decide to explore our vendorization process.
