Contact Tracing Communications and Marketing Campaign RFP
The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is looking for a communications and marketing firm to design and implement a communications campaign to encourage residents to fully cooperate with the Illinois Contact Tracing Collaborative. The Illinois Contact Tracing Collaborative is a program designed to build capacity to contact every person who tests positive with SARS-CoV-2 and to interview, trace, and contact close contacts of those cases (the “Contact Tracing Collaborative”). The collaborative includes contact tracers at local health departments (LHDs) and community-based organizations (CBOs), as well as IDPH employees who coordinate and fund a statewide response strategy. The contact tracers at the LHDs utilize IDPH supported technology systems to perform their tracing duties. IDPH and LHDs are also working with CBOs to ensure the success of the Illinois Contact Tracing Collaborative.
