Nashville, Tennessee – October
8, 2006 – Pangea Foundation, a San Diego-based Application Service Provider (ASP) to nonprofits, announced the launch of a new Web application
designed specifically for Service Coordinators
working in affordable housing facilities for families.
The Software, branded AASC Online Families, was
developed in collaboration with the American Association
of Service Coordinators (AASC), Enterprise™
Community Partners, and NeighborWorks® America. The goal is to replicate the remarkable success
of the AASC Online Seniors Web application in
the family affordable housing environment. According
to Kristin Kuipers, Founder and Director of Programs
of Pangea Foundation, “We are privileged
to have the opportunity to do for Service Coordinators
working in family affordable housing communities
what we’ve been able to achieve for Service
Coordinators working at senior and disabled affordable
housing communities.”
Since 2004, AASC Online Seniors has been the premier
real-time Web application for Service Coordinators
working in senior and disabled affordable housing
communities. AASC Online Seniors helps Service
Coordinators working at senior and disabled properties
implement, manage, and communicate the impact
of a resident services program. It provides Service
Coordinators all the tools they need to complete
their HUD Semi-Annual Performance Report in less
than five seconds with a click of a button.
With AASC Online Families, Service Coordinators
working in family affordable housing communities
will have the tools they need to improve service
delivery. In addition, Service Coordinators will
now be able to communicate program impact to management,
evidence-based funders and policymakers in the
areas of education, employment, housing, finances,
and life skills development. AASC Online Families will also give Service Coordinators the tools
they need to manage their HUD Ross and HUD FSS
grants.
