Pre-RFPCommunity & OutreachDetected Jun 15, 2026

The Domestic Violence and Rape Crisis Center (DVRCC) sent a May 29, 2026 letter to the Beach City Auditor requesting additional funding to support its programs. DVRCC operates the region’s only homeless shelter for women and children and has been operating over its 28‑bed capacity, while also facing higher rent, utility, and snow removal costs after relocating its Family Connection Safe Visitation Center due to a building sale, and needing a new security system for the new facility. Although this is framed as a funding request, it implicitly reflects growing demand for case management, shelter operations, and especially facility security and operating support.Vendors providing security systems, facility management, grant writing, or program management could engage by helping DVRCC and the city identify funding sources, specify security and facility requirements, and structure proposals for local or pass‑through grant support, without an active RFP in place yet.

The request notes that a new security system is required at the relocated Family Connection Safe Visitation Center, indicating a discrete technology and installation need alongside operating support.
