Resident Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency Program (ROSS)

The ROSS program links residents of public housing supportive services and activities, enabling them to make progress towards economic independence and housing self-sufficiency.

What are the overall goals of the ROSS program?

For elderly (age 62+) residents and persons with disabilities, the ROSS program aims to:

• Enhance the quality of life by connecting residents to services and activities.
• Enable participants to age/remain in place; and
• Avoid more costly forms of care, such as nursing homes or other institutional facilities.

Through needs assessments, case management, and referrals to community- and web-based services, ROSS Service Coordinators help each participant advance toward the above goals in ways that best fit their needs, personal priorities, and interests.
