Contact: Connie Murphy Multisystemic Therapy (MST) is designed to meet the needs of youth, 12 to 17 years old, at risk of out-of-home placement due to antisocial or delinquent behaviors and/or youth involved with the juvenile justice system. MST typically targets chronic, violent, and/or substance abusing juveniles at high risk of (or returning from) out-of-home placement and their families.
The MST program addresses the core causes of delinquent and antisocial conduct by identifying key drivers of the behaviors through an ecological assessment of the youth, his or her family, and school and community. The program is delivered for an average of three to five months, and services are available 24/7, which enables timely crisis management and allows families to choose which times will work best for them.
Master’s level therapists from licensed MST providers take on a small caseload at any given time so they can be available to meet their client’s needs. The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to solicit Proposals from qualified Respondents to provide MST for Juvenile Court Services (JCS) of the Seventh Judicial District (D7) which will include Scott, Muscatine, Cedar, Clinton and Jackson counties.
JCS is seeking a single vendor to provide MST services for the entire Seventh Judicial District. The intended target population of this program will be youth, ages 12 to 17 years old, at risk of out-of home placement and/or youth returning home from out of home placement.
