BetaNYC is a local civic technology nonprofit whose mission is to improve New York City governance through the more effective use of data and software inside municipal government. BetaNYC’s primary strategy is to engage at the most grassroots level of city government through a program that embeds tech-savvy City University of New York (CUNY) students inside local community boards and the offices of NYC borough presidents. These technology fellows help government officials assess internal technology needs and design and execute technology projects aimed at improving constituent services.  Funds from this grant support the continuation of the fellowship program as well as other capacity-building services to community boards and city agencies.  Grant funds are being administered by the Fund for the City of New York, acting as the fiscal agent for BetaNYC.
