Housing Authority Has New Veterans Program
HUD-VASH PROGRAM
Our agency currently has 135 HUD-VASH Vouchers. We have 110 persons housed and each month process
new referrals to receive a Voucher. The referrals come from the V.A. who screens the client for eligibility
based on the guidelines established by the V.A. and HUD. The primary requirement is that the client must
have been “chronically homeless” in the past 2 years. Truly, most of the persons we have housed were living
in tent cities around our area that most of us will never know of. Staff works very closely with the three
V.A. case managers, doing a lot of volunteering at Veteran rallies and stand downs to help identify potential
clients. I also use personal contacts at different AA and NA groups to spread the word, since many of the
Veterans are in recovery from substance/alcohol abuse.
Staff has established a very good rapport with several apartment complexes that truly do seek to house the
Veterans. We have made arrangements to have units ready the very day a Veteran receives their Voucher
and can immediately go look at the unit and very likely be living in that unit within a week.
Other community contacts assist the Veterans in securing the deposit money for unit deposit and utility deposit especially the Salvation Army.
There are also groups who donate furniture to the Veterans. Staff has enlisted some personal friends who
run an Outreach program and thrift store to donate household goods such as dishes, pots and pans, linens
etc.

Housing Choice Voucher Program Provides Flexibility
As a public service agency the Housing Authority of the City of Daytona Beach strives to provide professional,
efficient and friendly service to families in our community. The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program is
a three way partnership between the Housing Authority, the participant and the landlord/owner in which all
have responsibilities. It is our agency’s goal to provide residents with excellent service and to keep them informed of the program rules and how the rules affect the resident. Persons with disabilities may request Reasonable Accommodations in order to fully utilize this housing program. The program extends from Oak Hill to Ormond By The Sea, all housing located in Volusia County.
The rules and regulations for the housing choice voucher (HCV) program are determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The purpose of the program is to provide rental assistance to
eligible low income families. The voucher program is designed to help low income families obtain affordable
housing and to provide increased housing choices.
The Family Self-Sufficiency Program
HUD’s Best Kept Secret for Promoting Employment and Asset Growth
The Housing Authority City of Daytona Beach (HACDB) Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program is an employment and savings incentive program for low-income families. Higher rents that families pay as their earnings increase are transformed into savings they could use to purchase or repair cars needed for work, buy
homes, overcome financial emergencies, to pay for college, vocational education, and other purposes. The FSS
program provides HACDB with a way to improve services to residents and increase housing resources available to applicants.
The FSS program has two main components: case management and an escrow account. Families receive casemanagement services to identify employment goals and to help them access skill-building and supportive services programs available in the community to help achieve these goals. Our FSS applicants may be screened
only for their motivation to participate fully. FSS is not a full-service program; its case management services
must be complemented by other employment-related efforts in the community. But FSS is one of the few programs-and the only HUD-funded program-that helps poor families build assets. Every FSS participant who increases earnings enough to leave affordable housing or cease to receive assistance frees up a housing subsidy
for a new eligible family.
HACDB FSS program also offers a Homeownership Voucher Program to all of its FSS participants, both Housing Choice Voucher and the Affordable Housing program who qualify. Under the Homeownership Voucher
Program, many FSS low-income families will have the opportunity to use housing assistance that would otherwise be paid to a landlord as rent to purchase and build equity in a home of their own. Elderly and Disabled
families can also access the Homeownership Voucher program but are exempt from the FSS program and employment requirements for homeownership.

Linking Residents with Education and Community Services
Residents are linked to educational opportunities and community services through the both Family Self Sufficiency Programs (FSS) the Sections 8 Program and the Public Housing Program. The Housing Authority submits Grants to the Department of Housing and Urban Development on an annual basis to support the Self Sufficiency Program.
Strengthening Contacts with Resident Services
The Housing Authority has a Program Coordinating Committee (PCC). This committee consists of dedicated
professionals who meet quarterly to plan, network and work to ensure vital services are available to low income
families. First-rate success for those families willing to work hard to achieve their goals is encourages and realized because of dedicated partnership. Additionally, HACDB has a Resident Leadership Group. The group
consists of (Presidents from each Resident Council of the five (5) affordable housing communities. The Housing authority meets quarterly with the residents to strengthen and to ensure continuity in communication throughout each community.
