Family Self-Sufficiency Program — CFDA 14.896

FSS obligations at $473.0M

USAspending.gov records $472,953,346.60 in obligations under CFDA 14.896. Those 3,053 awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $154,914 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical award and not a unit cost for families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. Housing Choice Voucher or other HUD public-housing listings under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $472,953,346.60.

The assistance-listing title is FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY PROGRAM. CFDA 14.896 is the identifier. Read the $473.0M headline — $472,953,346.60 in the award file — as the obligation book tagged 14.896 only. USAspending.gov assistance awards are the source. This page does not convert obligations into outlays or into a count of families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained.

3,053 awards on 929 housing agencies

929 recipients share 3,053 awards. That is about 3.3 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $472,953,346.60 evenly would assign about $509,099 per recipient. That density is a packet quotient, not a typical grant size and not a cost per unit of families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. The packet does not list the 929 named organizations. Read $472,953,346.60 only against CFDA 14.896.

Fifty-three jurisdictions cover states plus extra coded entities. FSS dollars follow funded public housing agencies, not equal shares of voucher households. Place-of-performance amounts, if shown, live on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. A simple average is about $154,914 per award. Combining 14.896 with Housing Choice Voucher or other HUD public-housing listings under different CFDA numbers would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.

Award rows are not a family census

Among assistance listings, 14.896 is a high-row PHA coordinator file: thousands of awards against hundreds of named housing agencies. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of projects” and a worse proxy for families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. The recipient field (929 recipients) tells you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (3,053) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. Citing 3,053 as that unit would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $472,953,346.60 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov. About 3.3 award records per recipient is a multi-year PHA coordinator pattern.

Obligations versus FSS outlays

The $472,953,346.60 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Family Self-Sufficiency Program awards — are not in the packet. A file can show a large obligation stock while draws, reimbursements, or closeouts follow a different schedule. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. Treasury outlays are a separate series.

Use CFDA 14.896 to size this listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a dashboard of families enrolled, escrow accounts opened, or jobs obtained. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 14.896. The $473.0M figure is the compact form of $472,953,346.60.

What the 14.896 tables omit

Geographic coding covers 53 jurisdictions. Fifty-three jurisdictions cover states plus extra coded entities. FSS dollars follow funded public housing agencies, not equal shares of voucher households. It is not a voucher-payment ledger, not a wage-gain dashboard, and not a census of participating families. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $472,953,346.60.

Place-of-performance on 53 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of Family Self-Sufficiency Program funding. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid.
