Federal Grant Award Summary

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office awarded ADA County Housing Authority $191,768 under the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program (CFDA 14.896) for the period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. This Project Grant funds salary and fringe benefits for FSS Program Coordinators who implement the FSS program for residents of public housing, Housing Choice Vouchers, and project-based rental assistance properties. The coordinators are responsible for enrolling and maintaining participating families in the program, developing individualized training and services plans, and building partnerships with employers and community service providers to facilitate economic self-sufficiency.

Under this award, ADA County Housing Authority is required to hire or retain the funded full-time equivalent coordinator position(s) and serve a minimum of 25 participating families during the performance period, with the expectation that families will achieve employment gains, increase wages, and meet individual self-sufficiency goals over their 5-7 year participation period. The award supports HUD's strategic objective of using housing as a platform for improving family economic security by connecting low-income housing assistance recipients to employment resources and financial independence opportunities.
