1.01 Purpose
The purpose of this RFA is to provide guidance for current contractors to submit continuation applications to the Iowa

1.02 Project and Contract Period
FY20 is the fourth year of a six-year project period. The project period identified in the RFP is July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2022.
The Department expects the contract period for FY20 to be a one-year term from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020, which is a change from the prior RFP and RFA’s due to the federal guidance adjustments. Continued funding during the defined project period is dependent on approval of the continuation application, contractor performance and compliance with general and special conditions of the contract, availability of project funds, program modifications, or any other grounds determined by the Department to be in the Department’s best interest.
