About this file

This document is an Application and Budget Request Form attachment for the New York State Office of Children & Family Services (OCFS) Solicitation of Interest (SOI) 1275 for the New York Statewide Fatherhood Engagement Initiative. The initiative seeks to fund community-based organizations to provide targeted, non-personnel financial support that strengthens relationships between fathers or father figures and their children while improving outcomes for children, youth, and families. Proposed activities should support responsible fatherhood, healthy parenting, positive youth development, family stability, and increased awareness of available community resources, including child care and other family support services. OCFS intends to fund multiple qualified organizations based on established criteria outlined in the SOI announcement. Organizations must meet specified eligibility requirements and submit applications by the deadline noted in the solicitation announcement to be considered responsive.

The form serves as the official application mechanism for interested entities to request funding and present their proposed budgets for participation in the initiative. Applicants are required to demonstrate how their organization satisfies program requirements and how proposed activities align with the initiative's goals of strengthening families and expanding access to services that promote child well-being and long-term success. The funding is structured as non-personnel financial support, meaning organizations cannot use allocated funds for staffing costs but rather for programmatic activities and resources that advance fatherhood engagement and family stability objectives.
