IV. Upcoming Milestones
This Alliance expired on April 16, 2008. The focus of the Alliance was for the NFCASSE and BFAO
members to conduct joint outreach and training in Spanish to the Hispanic community in western New
York. However, NFCASSE currently only has one member who is fluent in Spanish. Therefore, due to
lack of resources on NFCASSE’s part, the BFAO will not be renewing this Alliance.
