Family Stabilization Program
The Family Stabilization Program (FSP) is a preventative, six-month case management program. The program is designed for families to obtain self-sufficiency by teaching them critical skills and tools to resolve crises and avoid future hardships while achieving long term stability.
The program’s primary objectives are to improve financial management skills, employability, family stability and mental health functioning, as well as maintain or improve housing. This is accomplished by providing clients with a variety of supportive services at no cost to participants.
Workshops are offered throughout the year as part of FSP, including financial literacy workshops facilitated and employability workshops facilitated through our partners.

Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
