National Association Of Family Development Centers, Inc.
City-funded organization
National Association Of Family Development Centers, Inc. operates Head Start early childhood programs at four centers in Brooklyn (Neptune, Shore Parkway, Glenwood and Coney Island), with a main office at 1114 Avenue J, per its own site (nafdc.info). Federal tax records list a Family Head Start 501(c)(3) nonprofit, EIN 11-2707362, registered at that same 1114 Avenue J address (IRS Form 990 data via ProPublica). NAFDC has held New York City contracts with the Administration for Children's Services and the Department of Education totaling $137 million awarded since 2010, with $105 million paid to date and none currently active as of August 2026. Its largest contract, a $27 million EarlyLearn Services award from ACS that ended in 2016, was competitively bid (RFP). A related $20 million award transferring EarlyLearn services to DOE, which ended in 2019, was a renewal not re-bid, and a $15 million Birth To Five Services contract with DOE that ended in 2021 was awarded as a contract assignment rather than a new bid. Citywide, 50% of the contract value awarded to NAFDC, $68 million across 14 contracts, was awarded without a fresh competitive bid.
