The Department of Homeless Services works to prevent homelessness before it occurs, address street homelessness, and assist New Yorkers in transitioning from shelter and street homelessness to permanent housing. DHS collaborates with non-profit partners to provide temporary shelter and services that homeless New Yorkers need to achieve and maintain housing permanency. DHS is seeking appropriately qualified vendors to operate Tier II residences for families with children who have no other housing options available. Tier II residences, which operate in accordance with New York State Codes, Rules and Regulations, Title 18, Part 900 (18 NYCRR 900), provide temporary housing accommodations and social services to homeless families until viable housing alternatives become available. The goals and objectives of these shelters are to provide transitional housing for families with children without other housing options, as well as services that help secure viable housing in the community and maintain independent living arrangements. These shelters shall provide structure and an atmosphere which facilitates assessment of the families' needs, the provision of case management and other social services, referrals to appropriate community-based services and assistance in securing alternative housing.
