About The Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program
Congress created the FSS program in 1990 as an employment and savings program for families in federally subsidized housing. The program combines a powerful savings incentive with service delivery to support residents in reaching their goals. It is the nation's largest asset-building program for families with low incomes.
Since 2010, Compass has partnered with public housing agencies and other affordable housing providers to operate an asset-building model for the FSS program - the first nonprofit organization in the country to do so.
