Becoming a Provider
Service providers must be vendored by Tri-Counties Regional Center (TCRC) before they can provide and be reimbursed for services. “Vendorization” is the term used to describe the entire approval process involved in preparing to provide services to individuals served by the regional center. While this process often involves obtaining licenses and/or approval from other State and local agencies prior to becoming a vendor, the main point of contact is TCRC’s Resource Development team. The application process starts here, and we will be your guide throughout the entire process.
The first step in becoming a TCRC service provider is to find out if you offer a service that meets the needs of the people served by TCRC. We encourage potential service providers to utilize the Request for Proposal (RFP) process to make this determination.

While becoming a vendor makes a provider eligible to provide services, it in no way obligates Tri-Counties Regional Center to purchase services from that vendor.
