The program provides a flexible, rapid-response strategy by which Assistance League of Inland North County can respond to specific community needs. These needs do not fit within currently existing programs and have to be addressed on a one-time-only basis. The program also allows the Outreach Committee to identify an array of critical issues facing the community for potential development of future stand-alone programs.
