Kudos to Planning District 1

In 2022, we have been sharing some shout-outs about CSBs or Agencies that are doing well with their intakes, follow-ups, engaging and supporting clients, and/or those that demonstrate a "spirit of inquiry" when engaging with our TA Team on GPRA administration issues.

 This month, we'd like to send some kudos out to Planning District 1 (PD1) for their steady intake GPRA numbers and for increasing their follow-up interview rate over time (now at 62%). They also successfully leverage contingency management funds and incentives to better-engage their clients and encourage them to participate, especially in the follow-up interview GPRA. Great work, PD1 team!
