Fulton County & Twin Cities Housing Workshops Scheduled

Fulton County along with South Fulton has been designated one of 40 counties in the United States that will participate in the new Federal Rural Partners Network.  This is a Partnership with multiple Federal Funding Agencies designed to assist communities that have suffered from persistent poverty.  This Partnership will bring opportunities to our community for funding of projects designed to reverse  economic decline.  As we move forward with this Partnership, we will post on this FB page, opportunities that become available to assist Fulton County and South Fulton residents.
