Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS)

More 

The purpose of the Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSS) is to promote the development of local strategies, to coordinate the use of assistance under the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV) with public and private resources, enable participating families to increase earned income and financial literacy, eliminate the need for welfare assistance, and make progress toward achieving economic independence and housing self-sufficiency. The mandatory program size is currently at 73; however, the agency continues to expand the program and has set a standard of 400 families as the new baseline and is the largest in the state of Florida. THA graduates approximately 38 families per year. The FSS competitive process grant is approximately $450,000 per year.
