About this file

This is a submission checklist attachment for Discretionary Opportunity Announcement (DISC) 1221, issued by the New York State Office of Children & Family Services (OCFS) for Post-Release Support Services in Erie and Niagara Counties. The solicitation seeks qualified entities to provide supportive, prevention, and reentry services to justice-involved youth ages 13-21 transitioning from residential placement back into their communities in the City of Buffalo (Erie County) and the City of Niagara Falls (Niagara County). Services are designed to support successful reintegration and stabilization of youth under conditional release or aftercare, with an average post-placement community support period of four to five months. The solicitation emphasizes community-based, culturally and linguistically responsive, trauma-informed, and developmentally appropriate programming.

Applicants must meet specific eligibility criteria to be considered, including active registration to do business in New York State, a minimum of three years of experience providing supportive, prevention, or reentry services to justice-involved or at-risk youth ages 13-21, at least one year of specific experience providing reentry services to youth with prior juvenile justice involvement, and submission of three professional references from collaborating organizations within the past two years. Applicants must submit four required documents by the deadline: a Letter of Interest, the completed Submission Checklist, References, and a Cost Proposal, all sent to funding@ocfs.ny.gov. Any applicant responding "no" to mandatory eligibility questions will be disqualified from consideration. The checklist requires authorized organizational representatives to sign and provide contact information, FEIN/TIN, and SFS Vendor ID if applicable.
