The FSS Program helps families with CMHA Housing Choice Vouchers or living in CMHA Public Housing take the steps to find and maintain stable employment and establish savings accounts that will lead to self-sufficiency. It is an opportunity to invest in your future—whether you want to finish school, find a better job, or secure the childcare and transportation you need to stay employed.
The HCV Homeownership Program is a federal program that allows a household with a Housing Choice Voucher to use the voucher to subsidize a mortgage to purchase a home.
As part of our mission, CMHA seeks to provide economic opportunities for low income residents. This is consistent with Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Act of 1968 as amended (24 CFR Part 135). The purpose of Section 3 is to ensure that employment and other economic opportunities generated by certain HUD financial assistance shall, to the greatest extent feasible, and consistent with existing Federal, State and local laws and regulations, be directed to low- and very low-income persons, particularly those who are recipients of government assistance for housing, and to business concerns that provide economic opportunities to low and very low-income persons.
