The CSC has budgeted approximately $366,000 in FY 20/21 and $3,000,000 in FY 21/22 for the Youth FORCE 2021 and LEAP High 2021 Requests for Proposals (RFP).
The intent of these RFPs is to provide year-round out-of-school time strategic youth development programming serving at-promise middle and/or high school youth. This is in response to the tremendous impact the pandemic has had on many students, with thousands not meeting adequate academic progress and the need for additional supportive services for students attending the 80% Free and Reduced Lunch (FRL) middle and high schools CSC is not currently serving.
