Council Member Althea Stevens inquires about the expansion of community feedback models across all Department of Youth & Community Development (DYCD) programs, referencing their success in existing initiatives. Mike Bobbitt, Deputy Commissioner, responds by illustrating how the 2016 community needs assessment influenced the agency's approach to food insecurity and led to a reevaluation of program sites to address 'SYEP Deserts.' Bobby emphasizes how the agency utilizes information from assessments broadly, not just for RFPs, and plans to enhance their dissemination efforts.
