A. Agency and Program Overview
The New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) is the largest municipal housing agency in the U.S. Its mission is to strengthen neighborhoods and preserve the affordability of housing. HPD’s Emergency Housing Services (EHS) provides temporary housing to people displaced from their homes due to fires, disasters, or city vacate orders for safety reasons. EHS includes shelter, relocation assistance, case management, counseling, permanent housing referrals, crisis intervention, and connections to community services.
B. Program Goals
HPD seeks Family Center providers to offer emergency housing and relocation services to HPD-registered relocatees as per NYC Rules, Title 28, Chapter 18. The Family Center facility must house at least 185 people in family units, defined as one or more adults with minors (under 18). Adults without minors are not eligible for Family Centers.
HPD will award at least three contracts in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx. Each contract will cover citywide services, with the proposer specifying the borough of the Family Center. Separate proposals are required for each borough. HPD will assign relocatees to centers based on unit availability and proximity to their former home or special needs. Relocatees may be placed in a center outside their original borough.
