Each Public Housing building has an on-site Resident Service Coordinator (RSC) to assist residents with tasks to promote independent living. The RSC is available to assist with coordinating activities within public housing rental units, acquiring information and services from local agencies, and alerting residents to new social service programs as they become available. The RSC will connect residents to community resources, coordinate activities of resident interest, assist residents with filling out forms to obtain services, acquire information regarding other agencies pertaining to residents’ needs, and will respond to resident’s individual needs regarding referrals provided.
Definitely! The FSS Program is a voluntary program available ONLY to Public Housing and Section 8 participants. The FSS Program coordinates housing assistance with public and private resources to provide households with case management, support, employment leads, workshops, home ownership benefits, resources, referrals, and an escrow account to assist with achievement of self sufficiency.
Section 8 Program
Put it in writing to you Housing Case Manager. Include who you want to remove and what date do you want them to be removed.
Note: Check your lease agreement with the owner to ensure they do not have a shorter timeframe for their requirements.
If you would like to move and continue your assistance under the Section 8 Program, you must give your owner/landlord AND your Case Manager a written 30-day notice PRIOR to vacating the unit. These notices must be delivered to the owner/landlord and your Case Manager BEFORE the first of the month.
NOTE: You cannot move until your current lease allows you to do so. If you are currently in a one-year lease agreement, your owner/landlord must agree to terminate your existing lease and contract. This agreement must be submitted to your Case Manager in writing.
You must be in good standing with the agency in order to be approved for relocation. You will not be approved for relocation while your file is under investigation for a Program violation that is grounds for termination from the program.
