SCOPE OF SERVICES
Clean Slate E3 Out-of-school Time Programs
Clean Slate E3, the nonprofit affiliate of Housing Authority City of Pittsburgh (HACP), is seeking
Request for Proposals (RFPs) from qualified organizations to provide contracted out-of-school time
(OST) programming for a one year program, with the option to renew up to two additional years, to
residents of HACP housing- Low Income Public Housing (LIPH) and Housing Choice Voucher (HCV-
formerly Section 8) programs. Multiple organizations will be awarded with funding under this
program. Organizations have the option to a) provide summer programs and after school programs,
b) provide summer programming only, or c) provide after school programming only. Contract
length will be determined based on programs offered (3 months for summer, 9 months for school
year, or 12 months for both).
Clean Slate E3 is seeking to provide structured, evidence-based, outcome-driven OST programming
designed to strengthen youth both socially and academically. Clean Slate E3 is committed to
providing all youth with the opportunity to achieve excellence in academics, athletics, the arts, and
cultural activities. Clean Slate E3 trusts that partners can facilitate this creative programming and
we are currently seeking high-quality organizations and individuals to work with our youth.
Clean Slate E3 has established a preferred program structure for OST services that would
encompass:
1. Enrichment programs that focus on challenging youth to build and advance
already-learned skills that go beyond academic interests. These activities use
curriculum and material created for the program with a combination of
assistance, which may include youth leadership, community services, violence
prevention, emotional learning activity, or audio/visual and performing arts.
2. Afterschool Programs that are high-performing youth development
organizations serving youth. Organizations applying must demonstrate (1)
experience managing an afterschool program, (2) ability to implement evidence-
based practices, create baseline assessments and utilize metrics to show
program performance to show positive youth development from start to finish,
(3) offer enrichment and recreation opportunities, (4) collaborate with other
public and private entities, (5) incorporate parental and family involvement, and
(6) provide appropriate training for staff and volunteers.
The successful respondents will be charged with working with Clean Slate E3
representation and HACP youth.
Site/Community Logistics: Applicants may opt to provide services onsite or offsite:
On-Site Providers: On-site providers are organizations that provide services at the location.
Providers will need to detail any special facilities requirements (e.g., gym space, a room with sinks,
etc.) and transportation requirements (include details in the budget narrative) for special events
such as field trips, if applicable.
Off-Site Providers: Off-site providers are organizations that provide services at a location different
from the site where youth will be participating in the program. Transportation must be provided.
