THEY PUSHED THE RESTART BUTTON

Jessica and her family wanted to become independent of the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Jessica worked with the RESTART program to meet her financial goals. As a result Jessica was able to use the $14,000 escrow check she received when she graduated from the program to purchase a home. She and her family are no longer on the Housing Choice Voucher Program.
Joe wanted to be able to provide better for his family. FSS helped him to save enough money to move into a better apartment and buy a car that provides safer transportation for his family.
