anchor: 20 Rather than viewing service area reconfiguration as a punitive measure against under-performing programs currently receiving federal funds, LSC instead considers statewide reconfiguration to be one of several tools to ensure that federal dollars are being spent in the most efficient, cost-effective manner possible, in a way that will result in the best service to the most low-income clients.
positive: LSC wants federal dollars to be spent in an efficient way.
negative: Statewide reconfiguration is not considered to be a tool to save federal dollars by LSC.
