This Yahoo Group is a "newsletter" for distributing information compiled by FSS Partnerships. Group members will receive emails at least once a month, and not more frequently than once a week, containing updates on: (a) new publications posted to www.fsspartnerships.org; (b) new best practices materials available at www.fsspartnerships.org; and (c) other information relevant to HUD's Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program.

This is NOT a discussion group about FSS. That is a separate unaffiliated listserv, for which you can sign up at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FamilySelfSufficiency/

FSS Partnerships is a project designed to: Expand awareness of FSS and its accomplishments across a broad range of constituencies; support FSS practitioners by sharing best practices and supporting entrepreneurial approaches to program growth; and develop and publicize models for partnerships between FSS programs and other agencies interested in asset-building and self-sufficiency efforts that can help expand the number of families benefiting from FSS.

FSS Partnerships is funded by a grant from the Annie E. Casey Foundation to LISC's Housing Authority Resource Center.
