Student Support is a critical element in producing positive academic and personal outcomes for students. By providing engaging environments and meaningful relationships with positive role models, Student Support providers facilitate the students capacity to build competence and increased self-confidence. The purpose of this RFP is to identify vendors that can provide these essential avenues of support to our students both within and outside of the classroom and complement the NYCDOEs mission of putting all children first. Furthermore, this RFP seeks to identify providers with the capacity to integrate supplementary services into the primary area of Student Support Services that can serve the communities that surround our children, including their family members and parents, members of their community and staff members in the school, regional and central offices that work on their behalf. All identified vendors will strive to build strong connections towards a positive future.
