Family Self-Sufficiency Program

established 2008

Family Self-Sufficiency is the capacity to manage one's own affairs, make own decisions, and provide for one's own self without the assistance of entitlements.   

The Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSSP) is a voluntary program, developed for individuals and families who wish to improve their financial situation, eliminate dependency, and are motivated to change their lives. 

Our mission is to enable individuals to reach their full potential towards self-sufficiency and independence by developing and implementing support services that will help strengthen their lives.  Our goal is to foster independence, self-determination, and self-reliance.

A program of the Crisis Assistance & Self-Sufficiency Services Department.
