FRESNO COUNTY RESOURCES DIRECTORY, 20th EDITION, HAS GONE TO PRINT

I&R Network staff has completed the 20th Edition of the Fresno County Resources Directory and submitted it to the printer. We anticipate beginning mailing out the new directory by the middle of August. We wish to thank everyone who has contributed toward making this the quality publication the community has come to expect.

This year has brought a lot of change again to the social service delivery system. Programs have been eliminated and others have been started. The 20th Edition contains the most accurate and comprehensive referrals for your clients in Fresno County.

A reduced number of Directories was printed this year. Don't miss out on this valuable resource; fill out and return the subscription form today.

If you have any questions or comments regarding the Directory, call Joe or Lori at (559) 488-3857.

LAST PRINTED DIRECTORY?

Help us guide the I&R Network into the future by filling out the internet connectivity survey. It will help us decide if it is time to discontinue the print directory and concentrate solely on the online Directory. The I&R Network needs to hear what you think as we develop a strategic plan for the future.
