Our program offers Emergency Assistance (EA) to eligible clients, providing crucial resources such as essential food, clothing, and shelter, as well as temporary rental aid and help with utility payments. We also assist with transportation for housing searches and cover moving expenses. While Emergency Assistance typically spans 12 months, we recognize that hardships can persist, and extensions may be granted based on specific circumstances.
