The award funds salaries and fringe benefits for FSS coordinators who serve low-income families residing in public housing, Housing Choice Voucher (HCV), and Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) properties throughout San Diego County.

FSS coordinators supported by this award are responsible for enrolling and maintaining participating families in the program, developing individualized training and service plans, and establishing partnerships with employers and community service providers. The grantee is required to maintain minimum participation levels based on the number of funded coordinator positions, with the first coordinator position serving at least 25 families and each additional position serving at least 50 families during the performance period. Over the 5-7 year program participation cycle, FSS participants are expected to achieve employment, increase earned income and wages, and accomplish other self-sufficiency goals under the coordination and support provided through this award.
