From the meeting
SP2 launched the Center for Advancing Research and Education on Social Care (CARES) with HUP and CHOP. The center will build research infrastructure, expand education, and develop workforce initiatives for healthcare social work. It also supports a two-year Social Work Affiliates Program, the Dean's Research Fellows Program, and the Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training (BHWET) Fellowship, so the opportunity is tied to implementation and partner expansion.

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 University of Pennsylvania issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks University of Pennsylvania'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 University of Pennsylvania 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 unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified University of Pennsylvania decision-maker contacts.
