What is the FSS Program?
The Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program is a HUD program that encourages communities to develop local strategies to help participating families obtain employment that will lead to economic independence and self-sufficiency. Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) work with social service agencies, schools, businesses, and other local partners to develop a comprehensive program that gives participating FSS family members the skills and experience to enable them to obtain employment that pays a living wage.
