This FSS Action Plan outlines the policies and procedures for the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program, aiming to coordinate housing assistance with public and private resources to enable assisted families to achieve economic independence and self-sufficiency. Key areas of focus include program purpose, scope, and applicability; detailed program administration covering staffing, funding, and the Program Coordinating Committee; comprehensive guidelines for selecting and serving FSS families, including incentives, outreach, and support services; specifications for the Contract of Participation and family obligations; and the management and reporting of the FSS escrow account. The plan's overarching goal is to assist housing-assisted families in maintaining employment that provides a living wage, reducing dependency on government subsidies.
