The Extension of these contracts is crucial to ensure continuity of services. The ACCO has determined that an extension of these services will be beneficial to the City since the same terms and conditions remain. In addition, the current contractors are familiar with Community Center Programming and have been performing satisfactory and above on their current contract(s).
Description

COMPASS Horizon services providing year-round services for youth ages 16-24, who are detained in the Horizon specialized secure detention facility. Services include high-quality activities and supportive relationships to foster social and emotional well-being, build life skills and offer youth opportunities to explore career options reflective of their strengths. These activities will promote a safe, trauma-informed environment; expose youth to industry professionals and employment pathways based on their interests; cultivate leadership skills and community involvement; and connect youth with paid internships and employment opportunities upon release. 

By extending the current contracts through this first NAE for two years, DYCD can maintain program stability, preserve provider expertise, and ensure that vulnerable populations continue to receive essential support while the agency completes its immediate procurement priorities, COMPASS, and prepares the competitive solicitation for the Horizon Program.
