Welcome to NASCSP’s

2012 Annual Conference

We’re Here to End Poverty

“Let’s never lose sight of the fact that we’re here to end poverty. That’s right. Even in the teeth of

the worst recession in a generation, we still believe that the problem of poverty can be solved. We believe there are real and viable solutions to

create better energy efficiencies for low-income homes.”

"Our American answer to poverty is not to make the poor more secure in their poverty

but to reach down and to help them lift themselves out of the ruts of poverty and

move with the large majority along the high road of hope and prosperity."

- Lyndon B. Johnson

Three Key Priorities for the Future1. Create flexible, effective, and efficient 21st

century approaches to ending poverty and achieving energy efficiency.

2. Strengthen the entire network with the training and technical assistance resources.

3. Answer the question, “How do we ensure adequate funding for CSBG and WAP?”
