 2025 General Assistance Update

All available funding for our General Assistance program for the 2025 calendar year has now been fully allocated.  Currently, we are unable to offer additional funding support for the remainder of the year.  We understand how important this support may be to your planning and we regret any inconvenience this may cause.
