Description

The Adult Literacy Program is a partnership with the New York City Adult Literacy Initiative (NYCALI), the Citys system for providing literacy and English language services for adults and out-of-school youth over the age of 16. Programs provide full instructional and support services to anyone over the age of 16 who is not enrolled or required to be enrolled in school and who is unable to speak, read and/or write the English language well enough to participate in education or training programs conducted in English. The program connects participants to a range of reading, writing, English-language and high school equivalency/General Educational Development (GED) Tests preparation programs. DYCD is looking to enter into a negotiated acquisition with one provider to fill the service gap as a result of a provider withdrawing from their existing adult literacy contract.

Timing does not permit for a full competitive process. DYCD will look to procure all Literacy Services this fall with the anticipation of new services starting July 1, 2024. Further, DYCD found there is a limited pool of providers who have the ability to operate Adult Literacy services in Queens within the limited period of this contract.
