Removing Barriers to Economic Independence
The Brookings County Housing Family Self Sufficiency (FSS) Program aims to assist low-income individuals in achieving economic independence by eliminating barriers hindering self-sufficiency. Eligible participants must be enrolled in the Brookings County Housing Section 8 Program, attend school or be employed, and demonstrate the ability to increase their rent payments through work. Supportive services offered include gas assistance, clothing vouchers, money for school books, counseling, driver’s license renewal fees, college application fees, GED testing fees, job training, and bus passes. FSS participants benefit from reduced state aid dependency, comprehensive case management, enhanced access to resources, improved self-esteem, and financial security. The program features an escrow savings account, where participants receive credits for rent increases due to higher earnings, matched by HUD, and qualify to receive the escrow upon achieving established goals and transitioning off assistance. FSS, a voluntary HUD initiative, combines financial incentives with case management over a five-year period to empower subsidized housing residents toward economic stability and self-sufficiency.
