The Funds are part of a coordinated effort to align government, business, philanthropy, and nonprofits (including faith-based and volunteer efforts) recognizing that immigrants make city stronger. Grantees will work closely with the offices of the Mayor, the Comptroller, and the Governor to share information and coordinate efforts. The Funds will not replace government support but will enhance and fill in gaps in government programs and funding. The Funds for the Newest New Yorkers seek proposals to provide services in the three areas listed below.  Case Management  Programs to provide case management in shelters, including both the City-run Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Centers and shelters run by nonprofits, that serve significant numbers of newly-arrived migrants. Case managers will work closely with shelter staff and the City to connect to nonprofits that assist with work, school, legal services, public benefits, housing, and stability. Legal Services  Programs to increase the capacity of legal providers to support recent arrivals. In addition to their own intake points for potential clients, funded nonprofits will accept referrals from City entities, such as case managers from shelters, hotlines, and the asylum application help center. Funding for legal services will support short-term efforts to help people apply for benefits and work authorization, along with the long-term efforts required for people to fight deportation and win lawful status. Legal services nonprofits may apply individually or through a primary nonprofit representing a consortium of providers.  Community-Based Social Services  Programs to help community groups connect or provide newcomers with public education, workforce development, job opportunities, workplace protection, English classes, and other services that support their integration into city life. Community groups may apply individually or through a primary nonprofit representing a consortium of providers. Funding Information The Funds for the Newest New Yorkers expects to make grants ranging from $75,000 to $250,000 per year ($150,000 to $500,000 total) per project, for up to two years. Projects that include case management as well as legal services and/or community-based social services may be awarded the maximum of $250,000 per year for up to two years. Projects without a strong, coordinated case management component will be eligible for up to $150,000 per year for two years.
