About General Assistance (WorkFirst NJ)
At General Assistance (WorkFirst NJ) in Manchester Township, NJ, we are dedicated to empowering individuals in crisis by providing essential Emergency Assistance (EA) tailored to meet immediate needs. Our services include access to vital food assistance, clothing, shelter, and household furnishings, as well as support for temporary rental costs, back rent, mortgage payments, and utility bills. We also offer transportation assistance to help clients secure new housing and cover moving expenses. While our emergency financial assistance typically lasts for 12 months, we understand that each situation is unique and may provide extensions under specific hardship circumstances. We prioritize assisting individuals who have recently lost their jobs without fault and connect them with unemployment benefits and further welfare support when needed. Together, we strive to uplift our community and foster resilience during challenging times.
