Family Self-Sufficiency Program is intended to be a five year program operated through the Housing Authority for individuals on Section 8 housing.  CAA is contracted to do the Case Management for this program.

  

While in the program, participants have the opportunity to earn an escrow account. Accumulation of the escrow account takes place as earned income increases. To be eligible to receive the escrow, participants must successfully complete program-related goals with the primary goal being:

 

• The participant must be off welfare 12 months prior to this completion date

 

Throughout the program, it is an expectation that the participant will find and maintain employment.  

CAA assists participants in setting goals that will lead them toward successful program completion.
