Scope overview

On June 15, 2012, President Obama announced Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), under which the U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not deport certain undocumented immigrants: those over the age of 15 and under 31 on the date of the announcement, who had arrived in the U.S. before they turned 16 and who have pursued or are pursuing education or military service.

Young adults who achieve DACA status are given temporary relief from the possibility of deportation and are able to legally live and work in the U.S. Before someone can apply for DACA, however, he or she must have earned a high school diploma or equivalency or be currently enrolled in school.

School may include an education, literacy, or career training program that is designed to lead to placement in postsecondary education, job training, employment or an education program assisting students in passing a high school equivalency exam. With funding appropriated by the New York City Council, the Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) has created the Young Immigrant Literacy Program.

Literacy providers coordinate services with legal services providers who assist participants identified as being DACA eligible with initiating the DACA application process, if appropriate.

Through this RFP DYCD is seeking qualified community-based organizations to provide outreach services to young immigrants who fall within the age range for DACA eligibility to ensure that the Young Immigrant Literacy Program is utilized to the fullest extent possible.

DYCD recognizes that DACA-eligible immigrants may be reluctant to seek services and therefore a concerted outreach effort is needed to reach and recruit the target population. A separate, but otherwise identical RFP is provided for each of the five boroughs. This RFP is for Staten Island. Agency: Department of Youth and Community Development Status: closed
