The Tennessee Housing Development Agency (THDA) administers a state-wide Section 8 Program with a full time FSS Coordinator and nine staff persons that work part-time to assist with the FSS Program. The total number of Section 8 FSS Program slots identified in THDA's Action Plan is 200. There are 174 families currently enrolled in THDA's FSS Program. The FSS Program Coordinator's job is to work with the Program Coordinating Committee and manage the overall operation of the program. THDA's FSS Program is designed to coordinate and identify training and services based on a needs assessment performed for each FSS enrollee in order to allow the participant to obtain and maintain suitable employment on a long-term basis that increases the earned income to the point that the participant achieves self-sufficiency and no longer needs to rely on any form of governmental assistance.
