The City of New York, through the Mayor’s Office to End Domestic and Gender‑Based Violence (ENDGBV) and in partnership with the Department of Social Services/HRA, is seeking proposals to operate the Crime Victims Assistance Program (CVAP). Up to six separate contracts (one city‑wide NYPD pool and five borough‑specific pools) will be awarded to provide victim‑advocacy, safety‑planning, case management, outreach, and coordination services for survivors of crime and abuse. The solicitation includes a mixed line‑item and performance‑based payment structure, a three‑year base term with a possible three‑year renewal, and a total potential funding of $45.7 million over the contract period. Providers must demonstrate cultural responsiveness, have staff with relevant experience, and meet community‑hiring goals.
• Six competition pools (city‑wide NYPD + Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island) each with its own budget (annual $12.8 M for NYPD pool; $0.39‑0.55 M for borough pools).
• Core services: victim outreach, crisis counseling, safety planning, referrals, escort to interviews/court, data collection/reporting, evenings/weekends coverage, and NYPD Special Victims Division coordination.
• Minimum staffing requirements include a Senior Program Director, Borough Directors, Senior Social Workers, and a cadre of victim advocates; performance‑based unit caps (e.g., 45 k contacts, 500 home visits) apply to the city‑wide pool.
• Submission via NYC’s PASSPort portal; pre‑proposal conference held on September 22 2026; questions due by the same date; proposals due October 19 2026.
