The term "continuing" co-operative refers to co-ops in which members jointly own the entire project but make no individual financial investment. 1, record 2, English, - continuing%20housing%20co%2Doperative

In Michigan, a new family- preservation effort called Families First relies on intensive intervention by case managers.... Over 80% of the 2,400 families who have participated in Families First are still together. In the 18 Michigan counties that have the program, new foster care placements have fallen 10%, compared with a 28% increase in those where the approach has yet to be tried. 3, record 18, English, - foster%20care%20placement
