Correction: Strategic Planning for Community Safety in New York City RFP

Under the direction of the Deputy Mayor for Community Safety (DMCS), the Office of Community Safety (OCS) develops citywide community safety strategies and coordinates the work of the Office of Crime Victims Services (OCVS), Office of Neighborhood Safety (ONS), Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence (ENDGBV), Office for the Prevention of Hate Crimes (OPHC), and the Office of Community Mental Health (OCMH). OCS focuses on strengthening the social fabric that keeps communities safe, streamlining and expanding evidence-based and common-sense safety interventions, and strengthening wraparound services so no New Yorker is left behind. The creation of OCS is the first step toward fulfilling Mayor Mamdanis pledge to create a Department of Community Safety, a city agency that advances a whole-of-government approach to building safer communities for all New Yorkers. DMCS and OCS seek a strategic planning consultant to support two strands of interdependent and iterative strategic planning efforts: The Safety Access and Fairness for Every Resident (SAFER NYC) Strategic Plan; and The Office of Community Safety Organizational Strategy and Implementation Plan These products will guide NYCs safety system change agenda and be an inspiration and roadmap for communities across the country. The Mayors Fund seeks proposals from qualified organizations with demonstrated expertise in strategic planning, organizational development, public sector facilitation, systems change, and community engagement to serve as the strategic planning advisor for the DMCS and OCS.
