Q&A

Goodwin sets 60% client and 40% community target for NEON

New York City Council · Oct 26, 2026 · starts 1:21:33 · 1 min 12 sec

Brooks-Powers asks whether the past policy meant most NEON participants were not DOP clients. Goodwin says yes, and says DOP is aiming for 60% clients and 40% community so clients get services first while keeping community involvement.
