The proposed bill involves the modification of Contract No. DCRL-2024-H1-0039 with Gods Anointed New Generation (GANG) to exercise the first option year for the provision of congregate care services for youth in foster care. The modification allows for a not-to-exceed amount of $1,044,697.43, covering the period from April 3, 2026, through September 30, 2026. This contract modification is part of a larger agreement that originally included a base period amount of $2,011,352.68, which was previously approved by the Council.

The bill also includes a certification that GANG is current with its District taxes, as indicated by the Citywide Clean Hands database. Additionally, the Child and Family Services Agency has confirmed that the funds for this contract modification are included in the approved budget for fiscal year 2026, ensuring that there are sufficient resources to meet the obligations of the contract. All other terms and conditions of the original contract remain unchanged.
