In accordance with section 3-03(b)(1) of the Procurement Policy Board Rules, the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) is releasing a concept paper to obtain feedback that will assist with the development of an upcoming request for proposals (RFP) for the Comprehensive After School System (COMPASS) Elementary and School's Out New York City (SONYC) programs in public schools and other settings. The primary purpose of the COMPASS and SONYC programs is to provide a range of engaging enrichment activities, after school and during school holidays and the summer, to help students in Kindergarten through Grade 8 to thrive, and to support families with childcare. 

 

Once the RFP is released, to respond to this and all other Human/Client Services RFPs, organizations must have an account and an approved HHS Prequalification application in PASSPort. Proposals and Prequalification applications will ONLY be accepted through PASSPort. If you do not have a PASSPort account or an approved PASSPort HHS Prequalification Application, please visit www.nyc.gov/passport to get started.
