Emergency Assistance Program

JF&CS responds to community needs in a multitude of ways. One of the ways is through our emergency assistance program. The mission of the program is to help people in economic crisis help themselves. We do so with dignity, respect, and confidentiality.

Funds come from a variety of sources with varied forms of eligibility.

You are not alone. We are here to help.

If you are selected for further assessment, you will receive a phone call. Anyone not selected for assessment will receive an email notifying them.

If you are eligible for services, you will be asked to provide documentation substantiating their needs, such as an overdue utility bill or cut-off notice, a lease or mortgage statement, social security card and government issued photo identification.

In addition to assisting with an immediate need, our staff will help to connect you to other community programs and resources.
