In 2014, Communities Foundation of Texas piloted the Working Families Success (WFS) network with ten (10) agencies from across North Texas. The WFS model integrates employment, financial coaching and supportive services in an intentional, focused approach and has successfully been implemented in more than 70 locations and 30 cities across the nation. Since 2014, selected agencies have been through an intense learning program, with training provided for staff at all levels. The first WFS site opened in Spring 2015, with eight more sites that have opened over the past year.
