Project
Fresno Housing develops and manages affordable housing across the County and equips residents with services to access economic opportunity. FUSE Executive Fellow MyChana Burton will strengthen residents’ economic mobility by embedding evidence-based, outcome-driven programs and practices into Fresno Housing’s work. As a result, front-line workers and affordable housing residents will feel empowered to develop strategies to pursue education or training and grow their incomes while preserving benefits until they are ready to move to new homes.
