Each family in the state should be out of poverty and enjoy:

Planned household expenditure
Risks managed - life, health, assets and incomes
Shelter, education, and, health
Vision
Prerequisites for poverty eradication
Core beliefs about poor:
• Poor have strong desire and innate ability to come out of poverty
• Poor have a strong spirit of volunteerism
Obstacles – psychological, social, economic, political - suppress this capability
• Social mobilization – to unleash innate abilities
• Social mobilization – not automatic, needs to be induced
Poor can come out of poverty only through their own institutions
Mandal Samakhyas and V.Os plan and implement the various
project components
– Each Mandal is divided into three Clusters of 10-12 habitations.
– A development professional, called Community Coordinator (CC) is placed in each Cluster. S/he stays in her cluster.
– SERP selects and trains them. After completion of training, they are contracted by the MS and are accountable to MS.
– M.S responsible for social mobilisation, institution building and funding the microplans of S.H.Gs/V.Os from C.I.F
– Micro credit plans are evolved by the S.H.Gs in each village. These plans are funded by their own savings, CIF fund and Bank Linkage.
– V.Os responsible for appraising the microplans and recommending them to M.S for financing from C.I.F
