Family Self-Sufficiency Program:
The Family Self-Sufficiency project is a comprehensive program that supports individuals and families to alleviate barriers, utilize available resources, and to promote economic independence. Clients must have the desire to succeed, be willing and able to work, and commit to program guidelines.
- Each participant is assigned to a case manager who will perform an assessment to determine their needs and to help with setting their short and long term goals. Goals can consist of, but are not limited to, completing education, learning budgeting skills, becoming first time home buyers or obtaining housing, and obtaining employment, with the goal of becoming self-sufficient.
- The maximum amount of time for program participation is up to two years. The participant’s graduation is determined by self-sufficiency performance outcome measures established by the agency.
- Participants are monitored through a web-based intake and data collection reporting system.
- Eligibility for all programs is based upon the current US Health and Human Services Division of Social Services, Federal Poverty Guidelines.
