SiBJECT: Contract with Center for Human Development to Provide Services Promoting
Safe and Stable Families
This contract supports five of the community outcomes established in the Children's Report
Card: 1) "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School"; 2) "Children and Youth Healthy and
Preparing for Productive Adulthood"; 3) "Families that are Economically Self Sufficient"; 4)
"Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and 5) "Communities that are Safe and Provide a
High Quality of Life for Children and Families," by providing services that strengthen and support
children and their families.
BACKGROUND:
Promoting Safe and Stable Families Program (PSSF) is a federally-funded program that
provides collaborative, community-based services to strengthen families and communities and
help prevent child abuse and neglect. PSSF provides multilingual services to clients who
demonstrate the highest levels of poverty, unemployment, child abuse and neglect, and is
designed to support families and prevent entry into the child welfare system.
The Center for Human Development (CHD)was selected from RFP # 1085 to provide a wide
array of services in the target community of North Richmond. In a collaborative partnership with
Richmond Public Library/Literacy for Every Adult Project (LEAP), CHD will provide services that
include a year-round after school program, youth mentoring, adult literacy, and development for
at-risk youth.
