NEW YORK (77WABC) — The city of New York Human Resources Administration in partnership with the New York City Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs is looking to retain a vendor to provide service operations and case management at its NYC Asylum Seeker Service Navigation Center and satellite sites located citywide.
In addition to what #NYC is already doing to support #AsylumSeekers, we are awarding $6,750,000 in contracts to nonprofit organizations for case management and other critical services. More to come!https://t.co/rJLjmhCw3K pic.twitter.com/lJp1MMsKd0

The satellite sites will be located near “City Sanctuary Shelter” locations in neighborhoods in all five boroughs “in which recently arrived asylum seeker and immigrant New Yorkers commonly reside.” The city plans to grant one $6.75 million contract to a single nonprofit that will likely subcontract out work to other entities.
Applicants will be judged by three criteria – experience, proposed approach, and organizational capability/ability to mobilize immediately. The nonprofit awarded the grant will be responsible for recruiting volunteers, managing clients, disseminating public information and educational information, distributing supplies and other resources, according to the announcement.
