Family Support Subsidy Program

The Family Support Subsidy (FSS) is a community-based, family-centered support service that makes it possible for children with developmental disabilities to remain with and to return to their birth or adoptive families. The subsidy provides a monthly payment ($300.36) that the family must spend on special needs that occur as a result of caring for a child with a severe disability at home. This program is income-based on Michigan taxable income of $60,000 per year or less and the child must have an educational disability eligibility from their school.
