Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS)
Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS)
Family Self-Sufficiency is a program designed to empower our Housing Choice Voucher (formerly known as Section 8) residents and our public housing residents to achieve complete self-sufficiency and independence. FSS staff focuses on obstacles that individuals and families commonly face, and works to assist them in overcoming those challenges so that they may ultimately secure a better life for themselves. FSS offers expertise and support in overcoming a wide range of obstacles relating to matters such as GED attainment, college education, transportation, job training and job placement, computer skills, parenting skills, financial counseling, accessing child care, and many more. Contact our FSS coordinator, Cyndi Udolisa for more information, or to apply today!
Hot Meals Initiative
The Hot Meals Initiative exists to serve MHA’s senior, veteran, and disabled residents, who are otherwise shut-in and isolated. With the help of many volunteers, Hot Meals allows MHA the opportunity to provide warm and nourishing meals to residents in need. More importantly, the meal-time serves as a time for MHA staff to check in on the wellbeing of isolated residents and establish ongoing relationships with the people we serve. Consequently, our residents gain a stronger sense of community and belonging in the place where they live, and feel more at home than ever before. We are committed to continuing this initiative, but we cannot do it alone. Contact our client services representative, Tracy Shively, for ways to get involved!
