Federal Grant Award Summary

The City of Santa Rosa received $152,064 in Project Grant funding 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 performance period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. This award funds salary and fringe benefits for FSS coordinator positions responsible for implementing the program across public housing, Housing Choice Voucher (HCV), and project-based rental assistance (PBRA) properties in Santa Rosa, California.

FSS coordinators supported by this award will enroll and maintain participating families in the program, develop individualized training and services plans (ITSPs), and establish partnerships with local employers and service providers to support family economic mobility. The award requires Santa Rosa to maintain a minimum threshold of participating families based on the number of funded coordinator positions and to serve participants over a 5-7 year engagement period, during which families are expected to achieve employment or employment improvements and meet other individualized self-sufficiency goals.
