Description
The Department of Homeless Services seeks nonprofit providers to operate “Stabilization Beds” – low‑threshold, 24/7 emergency housing for street‑homeless adults across New York City. Contractors must secure suitable sites, deliver housing‑first services, manage daily operations, and coordinate with DHS outreach teams to move clients into permanent housing. The contract is a five‑year base term with one optional four‑year renewal and includes extensive reporting, budgeting, and compliance obligations (community‑hiring, paid‑sick‑leave, labor‑peace, fire‑safety, HVAC efficiency, and maintenance‑tracking).
• Provide and manage 24/7 stabilization beds, meals, hygiene services, and harm‑reduction support.
• Maintain ADA‑accessible facilities, fire‑safety plans, HVAC systems, and a maintenance‑tracking system; submit annual inventory reports.
• Meet extensive compliance requirements: community‑hiring ratios (1 hire per $500 k), Paid Sick Leave Law rider, Labor Peace Agreement rider, and related certifications.
• Deliver weekly client‑entry lists, monthly performance/financial reports, and coordinate case‑management for housing placement.
• Submit detailed documentation: IRS 501(c)(3) determination, audited financial statements, site‑control proof, organizational charts, staff resumes, and budget narratives.
