2006 Presentation at the National Service Coordinator Conference,
sponsored by the American Association of Service Coordinators (AASC).
Provides overview of current budget situation for HUD programs
generally and for service coordination specifically; introduction to
the FSS program; and thoughts on the value of AASC expanding to
cover FSS and family service coordination.
Can we afford
to care about Self-Sufficiency programs? Presents
basic argument on why housing authorities should care about FSS,
Section 8 homeownership and other innovative program options that
help residents of public housing and Section 8 voucher-holders build
assets and make progress toward self-sufficiency.
Surviving and
Thriving in a World of Limited Resources. Describes
how housing authorities can use strategic partnerships to expand
their effectiveness, even in a world of limited or declining HUD
resources. Includes shorter versions of FSS and Section 8
homeownership powerpoints, as well as slides on other types of
partnerships, such as partnerships to set up supportive housing or
assisted living facilities and maximize EITC outreach efforts.
