USDR is excited to announce that applications are open for the 3rd cohort of NYC[x] Innovation Fellows. This is the third iteration of a fellowship model developed with the Mayor’s Office of the Chief Technology Officer (MOCTO) of New York City. I was part of the second cohort. Through this fellowship, compassionate technologists are embedded into a specific team within New York City to tackle specific challenge over 10 weeks. 

This cohort will target:

1. Make payments for parking tickets easier for NYC residents

2. Build a request and tracking system to route critical supplies in times of crisis

3. Convert physical forms into streamlined digitized forms for affordable housing residents
