Washington Columbia One

Washington Columbia One, a Boston-based partnership or limited liability partnership, serves as a prime recipient of federal grants funding Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program Coordinators through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The vendor is a subsidiary of Codman Square Neighborhood Development Corporation, a Black American-owned, minority-owned nonprofit community development corporation based in Boston.

Washington Columbia One's entire federal footprint consists of three Family Self-Sufficiency Program grants under CFDA 14.896, each funding FSS Coordinator positions serving low-income families in public housing, Housing Choice Voucher, and project-based rental assistance properties in the Grove Hall area of Massachusetts. The vendor received a $107,625 grant effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026, funding FSS Coordinators responsible for enrolling and maintaining participating families in the program, developing individualized training and services plans, establishing employer and community service provider partnerships, and supporting family progression toward economic self-sufficiency. Prior grants of identical scope and comparable magnitude ran through December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. Combined obligated dollars across the three grants total $304 thousand, with the Department of Housing and Urban Development accounting for 100% of awards.

Activity has remained stable at one award per year since 2024, with one award reaching completion within the next twenty-four months. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime grant recipient with no subcontractor footprint in the source data. Washington Columbia One's core capability is direct service delivery — employment and economic mobility programming for low-income families through FSS Coordinator staffing and case management.
