Welcome to the NYC Center for Innovation through Data Intelligence (CIDI) website. CIDI is a unit of the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Strategic Initiatives that was founded to use and incorporate inter-agency data to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the delivery of city health and human services to individuals, families, and children. CIDI works with partner agencies to conduct inter-agency research and provide analytical support to identify and address areas of service need in the City of New York.

CIDI collaborates with the Health and Human Service (HHS) agencies: Administration for Children's Services (ACS); the Department of Corrections (DOC); the Department of Homeless Services (DHS); the Department for the Aging (DFTA); the Department of Probation (DOP); the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH); the Human Resources Administration (HRA); the Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC); as well as other City agencies to promote policy change that will lead to improved services to the people of the City.

CIDI invites your ideas, thoughts, and comments as we partner with our HHS agencies to improve and enhance the City's programs to help New Yorkers in need.
