The Family Self Sufficiency (FSS) program is voluntary and available to all Housing Choice Voucher recipients. The program provides assistance and support to families interested in working toward their own”employment based” goals over a five (5) year period.

The focus is to find a way for each family to increase their earned income. FSS participants are eligible for an escrow account through the Housing Authority when their earned income increases. This account can grow monthly over the five (5) years and is rewarded to the family TAX FREE when goals have been accomplished and the household members are independent of cash welfare benefits.

Many families remain on housing assistance upon completing the program but homeownership preparation is often a final goal and numerous families are referred to our Section 8 Homeownership Program during their participation in FSS.
