Pdf Summary
The document outlines a training program provided by the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO) for establishing and operating the Program Coordinating Committee (PCC) in Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) programs. This training is targeted towards FSS Coordinators, FSS Supervisors, Resident Services Coordinators, and Executive Directors. <br /><br />The objectives of the training include understanding the "W's" of running a PCC—Why, Who, Where, and When. This program encourages participant engagement, asking questions, and avoiding the use of acronyms for a more inclusive learning atmosphere.<br /><br />The program emphasizes compliance with regulations, specifically the 24 CFR part 984 and 887, where the main purpose is to develop local strategies that coordinate public housing assistance with public and private resources. This aims to help families achieve economic independence and self-sufficiency. Furthermore, requirements of the FSS program include coordination of supportive services, establishment of a PCC, managing FSS escrow accounts, and adherence to nondiscrimination and equal opportunity regulations.<br /><br />The training underscores the importance of a PCC made up of diverse members, including representatives from PHAs, participants from HUD programs, local government, employment agencies, educational institutions, and more. Recruitment strategies for PCC members involve networking, community meetings, and leveraging existing relationships with service providers. The committee's role is to assist in securing public and private resources and support FSS participants in transitioning from public assistance.<br /><br />Meeting practices and guidelines for PCCs are discussed, encouraging meaningful agendas and networking opportunities that align with the FSS program's objectives. The document suggests meetings should ideally occur quarterly and emphasizes the importance of documenting participation and setting clear roles and responsibilities.<br /><br />Lastly, resources and strategies for building partnerships, such as Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs), are provided, highlighting the benefits of collaboration and shared goals in achieving program effectiveness.
