  • On August 1, 2013, Andrew Cuomo announced that "$30 million in funding is available to attract private-sector investment in New York States landmark Pay for Success program, which is part of the States efforts to transform how government does business while serving vulnerable New Yorkers. The State is seeking partners to raise up to $30 million in private investment for innovative social service programs under this initiative. The Pay for Success initiative will attract private funding for child welfare and early childhood, healthcare, and public safety programs. If performance standards and actual savings targets are met or exceeded, the State will repay investors for program costs as well as to provide a return on investment based on the effectiveness of the program, and the State will also benefit from future savings."[1]
  • According to the Washington Post, while serving as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development in 1999, Cuomo "released a report titled 'Now Is the Time: Places Left Behind in the New Economy,' calling for more aid for economic development in depressed areas, more housing vouchers, more redevelopment of troubled housing projects, more money for programs from Youth Opportunity Areas to Economic Development Initiatives to 21st Century Learning Centers."[2]
