About

Families can receive up to $5,000 annually per child ($10,000 lifetime maximum per child), and DO NOT need to have insurance through UnitedHealthcare to be eligible. Info on eligibility requirements, required documents, and grant exclusions can be found at the link below.

Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program
Some local Housing Authorities and regional housing assistance agencies provide households who have a Section 8 voucher (and in some cases residents of public housing) with the opportunity to participate in FSS. Under FSS, as your household’s earned income increases, the resulting increase in your share of the rent will get deposited in an "escrow" account. When you finish the FSS program, you can use the money in the escrow account for any purpose - examples include purchasing a home, paying down debt, enrolling in job training/education, starting or growing a small business, and purchasing or repairing a car. In some cases, you can use the funds towards your own career or education goals even before finishing FSS. To find out if FSS is an option for you, contact the local Housing Authority or agency that administers your Section 8 voucher, or the local Housing Authority that operates your public housing.

Student Loan Payments & Forgiveness
On August 24, 2022, President Biden announced that the federal government would cancel $10,000 in federal student loan debt for borrowers with individual income less than $250,000 for married couples or heads of household (or less than $125,000 for all other individuals), with an additional $10,000 ($20,000 total) in student loan debt cancelled if those borrowers received a Pell Grant. The new loan forgiveness program applies to federal loans owned by the U.S. Department of Education (not owned by a bank) that were disbursed before June of 2022, including Stafford loans, consolidation loans, Graduate Stafford and Plus loans, and Parent Plus loans. In addition, the pause on student loan repayments has been extended one final time, to 12/31/2022. Starting 1/1/2023, monthly student loan payments will be capped at 5% of discretionary income (income above 225% of the federal poverty level). For some individuals, loan forgiveness will be automatic, but to be on the safe side, those with loans eligible for forgiveness should apply online. To apply for student loan forgiveness, click the link below.
