Family Self-Sufficiency Program

The Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program is a supportive initiative that helps public housing residents and certain voucher recipients achieve economic independence. Participants work with case managers to set goals like employment, education, or savings. As their income increases and they earn more, the program secures their increased housing voucher benefits in a related savings account. Once goals are met and program requirements are finished, participants can access these savings to support their long-term stability. The program encourages self-sufficiency by combining job and education support with financial incentives.
