To provide case management and workforce development services for FSS program in the Bronx, Upper Manhattan and Northern Queens. Family Self - Sufficiency Program (FSS) is designed to enable tenants receiving Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) assistance to increase their earned income and meet their long-term employment goals. It is available to all HCV participant households. FSS consists of two core offerings for participants: 1) connections to job training, financial counseling, and other social services in support of either gaining employment or obtaining a higher-paying job and 2) creation of an escrow account that enables participants to start building financial assets as they pay higher portions of their rent. HPD anticipates three (3) contract awards, two (2) for Case Management and Workforce Development Services and one (1) contract award for Financial Counseling Services. In 2022, a contract was awarded under the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program to provide Case Management and Workforce Development Services to participants during FY22 through FY25. This renewal will extend the existing contract through FY25 to FY28.
