This Request for Proposal (RFP) provides program and application guidelines for the NYS Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence (OPDV) Risk Reduction Civil Legal Assistance (RRCLA) Program. OPDV is accepting proposals to provide holistic legal services to victims of domestic violence who have been identified as having a high risk of physical danger or homicide. Eligible applicants for this Request for Proposals are NYS domestic violence programs that are licensed and/or approved by the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS), in partnership with a civil legal assistance provider with experience and expertise in providing civil legal assistance to victims of domestic violence. Applicants must participate in a multi-disciplinary high risk response team, as later defined, or operate in a community utilizing a lethality or danger assessment tool with a protocol for response. Legal matters may include orders of protection, custody and visitation, child or spousal support, divorces, consumer credit and finances, landlord/tenant, child protective proceedings, or other areas of law identified as a need for particular clients. Recognizing that legal assistance can be most effective when legal needs are promptly identified and addressed, this program will aim to have an attorney involved with victims identified as high risk as soon as possible, to spot the legal issues that may be present, and to work with the victim to provide legal assistance and intervention as quickly and comprehensively as possible.
