From the meeting
Several comments urged the city to expand the Community Alternative Response Emergency Services (CARES) team to 24/7 service so behavioral health crises can be handled without police escalation. The ask was made in the context of the Corey Ruiz killing and repeated references to mental health response and nonviolent alternatives. The source shows an open service-expansion need, not a selected contract.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Madison Community Development Authority issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Madison Community Development Authority's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Madison Community Development Authority before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more public services government opportunities in Wisconsin?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces public services pre-RFPs in Wisconsin as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
