Family Self Sufficiency Program
The Family Self Sufficiency Program provides residents of Charter Oak Communities the tools they need to attain economic self sufficiency. The program offers individualized support including vocational counseling, goal planning, job and life skills training and family counseling aimed at helping participants become economically independent.
We work with partner agencies in the area to identify potential employment, education, homeownership, childcare, transportation and self-improvement opportunities for participating families. Free computer training courses are also offered.
To further encourage self-sufficiency and financial development, Charter Oak Communities has established special escrow savings accounts for the program’s participants. Rather than experiencing a rent increase as their income improves, participants are eligible to contribute to the escrow account. All funds saved into these accounts are available to residents for any self-sufficiency-related expenses after the five-year program.
