I joined City Council Member Mark D. Levine, and dozens of concerned parents and members of the community to call on the New York City Administration of Children's Services (ACS) to reconsider their decision not to award a new Early Learn day care contract to Nasry Michelen Day Care (Nasry).Nasry has provided high quality child care services to our community for more than 30 years.
Without a new contract, Nasry would be moved from its current site and could be forced to cease operations. ACS issued a request for proposals to a host of day care centers in a process that treated providers who've served in a community for decades exactly the same as providers who may have only recently moved into the same area.
Nasry, a small single-site provider, scored 91 points out of a potential 100 on their proposal to ACS--an impressive and near perfect score. The decision regarding Nasry's appeal stands to impact over 150 children, and would affect more than 350 family members.
