Community Programs
The GHA Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program is available at Lakespring offering opportunities for residents to improve their economic future. FSS coordinates education, training and job placement programs to help residents become more economically self-sufficient. There is currently one family in the FSS program and no families have an escrow account established.
Resident Services provides referrals for emergency assistance to residents of all communities who are in need of assistance with rent, utilities, food and transportation. A Resident Services Coordinator provides technical assistance to all Resident Councils.
