The purpose of the Family Re-Housing and Stabilization Program ("FRSP" or "Program") is to support District residents who are experiencing homelessness or at imminent risk of experiencing homelessness, to achieve stability in permanent housing through individualized and time-limited assistance within the twelve (12)-month maximum allowable program assistance time period.
FRSP participants shall work with their assigned Service Provider to increase their income during the program assistance period and attain at least the District's minimum wage. In cases where a disabling condition prevents the participant from increasing income, the Service Provider will assess the family for additional services and refer them for appropriate services.
FRSP offers a range of supports that are responsive to participant needs, including: optional individualized case management services, housing identification, connection to mainstream and community-based resources, and financial assistance.
The provisions of this chapter describe the application process, eligibility criteria, assistance determination, description of assistance provided, and appeal procedures for the Program.
Nothing in these rules shall be interpreted to mean that FRSP assistance is an entitlement. This Program shall be subject to annual appropriations and the availability of funds.
The Department may execute contracts, grants, and other agreements as necessary to carry out the Program.
