Nonprofit Capacity Building VISTA
 
 
 
The Mayor’s Office of Contract Services (MOCS) VISTA will provide assistance to community-based organizations that provide City services to underserved New Yorkers through City Council discretionary award funding. Each fiscal year, as part of the Adopted Budget, City Council Members allocate funding to nonprofit organizations for programs that range from anti-poverty to combatting homelessness. Because these awards must first be designated in June or subsequent transparency resolutions, then cleared for procedural requirements, the award contracts are often not processed until well into the fiscal year – when organizations have already begun performing services. To help expedite award clearance and contract registration, the MOCS VISTA would work collaboratively across the agency. This VISTA position is a part of the NYC VISTA program, a group of 25+ VISTA members serving in New York City Government agencies supporting their anti-poverty work. The NYC VISTA program is administered by NYC Service, a division of the Office of the Mayor. This position is supervised directly by a city agency staff member and will be a part of the larger NYC VISTA community.
