Services Block Grant Program
The Community Services Block Grant Family Empowerment Self- Sufficiency (FESS) project saw the culmination of another successful year for the 369 enrolled families. Staff worked with them to determine their individual family strengths, needs, and visions for the future. Of these enrolled families, 57 movedabove poverty; 80 became gainfully employed, 28 of these jobs had medical benefits; six completed educational or job training; and 50 secured standard housing. When a family moves above poverty, they are empowered and become strong, capable members of society, not only coming off public assistance but also contributing to the tax base. |
