Federal Grant Award Summary

The Asheboro Housing Authority received a $105,250 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Family Self-Sufficiency Program (CFDA 14.896) for the performance period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. The award funds salaries and fringe benefits for FSS (Family Self-Sufficiency) Coordinators responsible for implementing self-sufficiency initiatives for low-income families residing in public housing, Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), and Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) properties in Asheboro, North Carolina.

FSS Coordinators supported through this funding are responsible for enrolling and maintaining participating families in the program, developing Individual Training and Services Plans (ITSPs) tailored to each family's circumstances, and establishing partnerships with local employers and service providers. The grant requires the grantee to maintain a minimum of 25 participating families for the first funded Coordinator position, with the expectation that over a 5-7 year contract period, participants will achieve employment gains, improved wages, and progress toward their individualized economic self-sufficiency goals.
