Since March 2020, the New York City Mayor’s Office of the Chief Technology Officer team has successfully partnered with volunteer technologists from U.S. Digital Response on multiple COVID-related projects. Now, New York City is launching the second cohort of its NYC[x] Innovation Fellows program to expand on this successful collaboration, embedding small teams of technologists with City agencies to rapidly solve specific challenges through the use of best practices in digital service delivery.
With the support of the Rockefeller Foundation, USDR’s health program aims to improve government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This program is focusing efforts on COVID-19 vaccinations, testing and tracing, and research and rapid response. Learn more about USDR’s health program here.
