HUD's
Web Clinics Help Partners Build Web Sites That Work
The
Department of Housing and Urban Development delivers most
of its services via nonprofits, public housing agencies, state
and local governments, and other entities. To meet the goal

The goal is to use HUD's website to tell citizens about HUD-funded
services and then link them to the service, provided through
the partners' websites.
