HAR §17-2028-71. Family self-sufficiency program

The objective of the authority’s family self- sufficiency (FSS) program is to reduce the dependency of low-income families on welfare assistance, section 8, public housing, or any federal, state, or local rent or homeownership subsidies. Under the family self-sufficiency program, low-income families are provided opportunities for education, job training, counseling, and other forms of social service assistance, while living in assisted housing, so that they may obtain the education, employment, and business and social skills necessary to achieve self sufficiency.
