Subject: Announcement - New Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta online

resources

The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta has created two new online resources

for consumers, community organizations, financial institutions, and

municipalities.

The Foreclosure Resource Center offers information on the Federal Reserve's

efforts to mitigate the impact of foreclosures as well as links to local

and national news, events, resources and data. By consolidating numerous

resources into a single site, the Center aims to help consumers better

understand and, when possible, avoid foreclosure. For municipalities,

community organizations and financial institutions, there is a research and

policy section that will help explain federal and state response to

foreclosures. This site is focused on the FRB Sixth District and events

and activities in southeast states but there is a lot of information on

national initiatives and federal programs.

The Disaster Planning, Recovery, and Rebuilding Resource site provides

information on preparing for and recovering from natural disasters. There

are a number of tools and support materials available on the site. In

addition to these resources, a post-storm resource link will be added as

necessary to provide banking and other information for targeted recovery

zones. We will soon be adding a link to an educational video produced by

the FRB Boston that underscores the importance of having a bank account to

help in recovery from natural disasters and other emergencies. Most of the

resources on this site are not limited to the southeast states.

Please take a moment to visit the websites and share your feed back with

me. If you have any suggestions regarding local information that can be

added to the sites, please let me know.

I would appreciate your assistance in advising the community about the

availability of these resources.
