Fox Cities Project Promise Poverty Coalition establishes new direction, affirming its war on local poverty
At its quarterly meeting on December 8, 2010, the Project Promise Poverty Coalition membership approved the new strategic direction proposed by its steering committee. That direction reflects continued efforts to raise awareness and understanding of poverty in the Fox Cities, as well as a new focus on engaging community leaders in local efforts to address the factors contributing to poverty. The revitalized direction responds to the coalition's updated vision of "a community where everyone is engaged in maximizing the ability of all community members to achieve their full potential and participate fully in the life of the community."
The new Project Promise model includes three task forces under the umbrella of Project Promise. Each task force has a unique mission, tactics, and goals targeted at realizing the Coalition's common vision.
