Project Grant FSS26AZ7092

The City of Scottsdale received a $107,264 Project Grant award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program (CFDA 14.896) for the period of January 1 – December 31, 2026. This funding supports the salary and fringe benefits for FSS Coordinators who implement the program for residents of public housing, Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), and Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) properties within Scottsdale's jurisdiction.

FSS Coordinators funded through this award are responsible for enrolling and maintaining families in the self-sufficiency program, developing Individual Training and Services Plans (ITSPs) tailored to participant needs, and establishing partnerships with local employers and service providers. Based on the funding amount, the City of Scottsdale is expected to hire and retain the requisite number of full-time equivalent coordinator positions and serve a minimum of 25 participating families during the performance period. Program participants are expected to improve employment prospects, increase earned wages, and achieve other individualized economic goals over the 5–7 year duration of their program participation.
