The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) has made resources available to ensure that public housing residents can meaningfully plan for the future of their communities in connection with the Permanent Affordability Commitment Together (PACT) program. PACT is a critical tool that, through partnerships with private and non-profit development partners, allows NYCHA to not only modernize homes, but also provide enhanced community services and amenities.
Through an initiative called the PACT Resource Team, Public Works Partners, LISC NY, Pratt Institute, and Public Policy Lab are working with NYCHA residents to assess their needs and priorities and connect them with qualified organizations and providers to support them through the PACT investment process.
In February 2022, LISC NY and Public Works Partners released a PACT Resource Team Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to establish a pool of independent organizations and professional consultants who can be tapped to provide direct, technical assistance to NYCHA residents. The initial round of RFQ responses was due on March 7, 2022, and LISC NY is pleased to announce the initial list of prequalified PACT Resource Team technical assistance consultants here.
Applications from additional interested providers will be accepted on a rolling basis. View the full RFQ here.
Applications must be submitted via the online application portal and will be reviewed on an ongoing basis.
