ROSS (Resident Opportunities & Self-Sufficiency) Program

Adult and youth residents in conventional Public Housing work with the ROSS Coordinator to set employment, education and career planning, financial planning and more goals and work toward economic self-sufficiency.

Who is Eligible: All public housing residents who dream of economic independence are eligible and invited to participate in the ROSS Program. The ROSS Coordinator, Shelby Wilson, works with public housing residents to assess individual needs and coordinate available resources in the community to meet those needs. This program is led specifically by the individual participating and enables families to increase earned income, make progress toward achieving economic independence and housing self-sufficiency, or help improve living conditions to enable elderly and disable residents to age-in-place.
