November 2002
The I&R staff has received the 19th Edition of the Fresno County Resources Directory back from the printer and copies are now available. We are printing fewer copies than last year so to avoid missing out on this comprehensive listing of community resources in Fresno County, take a moment right now to fill out your subscription form and drop it in the mail or fax it to the I&R Network office. People who pre-ordered the Directory should have already gotten their copies by now. If you have ordered a directory and have not received it, please contact our office.
The 19th edition contains almost 100 programs never before published. Unfortunately, a number of programs also closed this past year and are no longer listed in the Directory. There are now more than 1650 programs listed in the Directory. Each program contains valuable information such as contact people, phone numbers, addresses, fees, languages spoken, brief descriptions, and a wide range of other information to assist you in finding the most appropriate services for your clients.
Because of the large amount of change that occurs in the human services delivery system from year to year, you will need to purchase a new Directory in order to have the latest and most accurate information at your fingertips.
If you have any questions or comments regarding the above, call Joe or Lori at (559) 488-3857.
(This column looks at a wide variety of resources that are available on the World Wide Web. If you have Web sites to feature you think would be of assistance to others, please contact Joe or Lori at 488-3857.)
