RFP for Design, Launch and Coordination of a Countywide Juvenile Pre-Arrest Diversion Initiative

The Department of Human Services (DHS), on behalf of Allegheny County, requested Proposals to design, launch and coordinate a countywide pre-citation and pre-arrest diversion initiative (henceforth referred to as the Initiative). Ultimately, the Initiative was intended to reduce the number of racial disparities seen in juvenile justice referrals and advance a culture of restorative justice within schools and communities by offering an alternative to citation and arrest through a diversion referral. A diversion referral provides school staff, community law enforcement and other stakeholders with an alternative to citation and arrest in which youth can receive needed services.
