Strengthening Our Members
We strengthen our members through three key strategies: 1) providing technical assistance to direct service providers; 2) providing professional, financial and program development training to administrators and direct service providers; and 3) leveraging resources through forging partnerships. 

Supporting Program Innovation
Federation members are rich in experience and knowledge about developing and running programs for families, children, teens and adults. To harness this experience, the Federation identifies and promotes “best practices” in service delivery and program management among FNC members. The Federation also seeks funding to design and manage innovative programs for families, youth and adults. 

Influencing Public Policy
The FNC acts as a communications link between its member agencies and policy makers. By apprising members of emerging programmatic, legislative and budget proposals, and informing public officials of the needs expressed by FNC members in their community work, the Federation facilitates an informational exchange that ensures that the interests of Philadelphia neighborhoods are reflected in the government decisions affecting their future.
