The Section 8 Housing Assistance Program for Franklin-Vance-Warren operates in Vance and Franklin counties. Through the rental assistance program, 579 eligible families are able to have decent, safe and sanitary living conditions.
Traditionally, the Section 8 program has been known to only help families pay rent on monthly bases, but however the Home Choice Voucher Program has expanded to helping families purchase homes. This program will allow low to moderate income families to obtain the American Dream of homeownership. Franklin-Vance-Warren has certified HUD counsellors on staff that assist families in homeownership process.
The Family Self-Sufficiency Program is a HUD program that encourages communities to pool resources to help assisted families obtain employment that will lead to economic independence and self-sufficiency. Under the Family Self-Sufficiency Program, an interest-bearing FSS account is established by the agency for each participating family. The amount of the escrow credit is based on the earned income of a FSS participating family. Staff serves as mentors to the families and monitors their progress. The staff of Section 8 continues to encourage families to participate in the program. The agency continues to seek out opportunities for staff to gain needed training and education relative to the Section 8 program. The better prepared our staff is, the better quality of work, and service we can provide our clients.
On December 6, 2011, A/S Sandra Henriquez sent an e-blast to all PHAs announcing the Great Schools initiative. HUD has partnered with Great Schools, a national non-profit educational resource for parents, to provide their free web-based tool, www.GreatSchools.org, to parents who live in public housing or who receive Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) rental assistance. This website includes information on how parents can choose the best school for their children. It also features about 2,000 articles and videos that provide information on how parents can help their children be successful in school with free materials such as subject-based worksheets, parent-teacher conference information, homework help tips, college preparation support, and answers to parenting questions.
