Appendix I: Using The Web To Implement HUD’s Strategic Goals

F. Strategic Goal 6: Promote participation of faith-based and community organizations

Opportunities:

1. Promote/market information already on HUD's website by educating staff about its availability and publicizing it to HUD partners and the public through speeches, presentations, advertising, and other outreach efforts. Examples of specific information already available that supports this goal include:

• HUD's Center for Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships

  	English
  	Spanish

2. Increase the resources available on the regional Faith-based and Community Toolkits (e.g., www.hud.gov/local/shared/working/faithbased/ixfaithbased.cfm?state=az)

3. Seek out and publish "good stories" resulting from the work of faith-based and community-based organizations.

4. Webcast local faith-based conferences, so those who can't attend can see what transpired

5. Create mailing lists for faith-based organizations to get additional information about HUD's programs and efforts

6. Create discussion rooms for faith-based partners so they can interact with one another and knowledgeable HUD staff

7. Make a special effort to invite faith-based and community-based groups to HUD Web Clinics and Web Conferences.

8. Showcase espanol.hud.gov at faith-based conferences and whenever promoting HUD's faith-based and community partnerships, and inform partners about the information available from HUD's Spanish website
