An array of public services in New York City are run by a vast network of nonprofits, many of which enjoy lucrative long-term contracts that come with limited oversight, according to a series of stories reported by Crain’s New York Business. The city will spend $23 billion on contracts in the coming fiscal year, including $7.2 billion for social services, as a result of decades of privatization. Meanwhile, these nonprofits have become a separate power center, enlisting former top city officials and lobbyists into their C-suites or boardrooms, while the city, with its ballooning budget, has not always enjoyed the expected cost savings of shifting work to outside groups.
