Notice Details

The vendor will provide holistic services to disturb, prevent, and reduce gun violence in high-risk neighborhoods, specifically neighborhoods that have been identified as at the greatest risk of the City’s gun violence (hereinafter “Impacted Communities”). These efforts are coupled with high-paying employment and training opportunities to prepare participants for sustainable employment opportunities. Further, since continuity of holistic services as a whole, including PEI, is of utmost importance in addressing the gun violence problem -- as is promoting personal growth for wrap-around service recipients -- the vendor would be available to add additional bridge wrap-around services in the event there is a procurement issue that threatens to disrupt the continuity of services.
The Crisis Management System (“CMS”) is a partnership of more than 70 organizations that promote peace, community stewardship of public safety, and healing in neighborhoods most affected by gun violence. As of 2020, the CMS network is operating citywide in 21 neighborhoods, which account for upwards of 50% of NYC’s shooting incidents.  CMS is a model of civilianizing public safety, building on the talent, resiliency, and creativity that reside in neighborhoods across New York City.
