Financial Help Provided: Financial Assistance




Full Description:

Monroe County United Ministries provides basic needs assistance for Monroe County residents in crisis. Assistance may come in the form of food, clothing, household items, cleaning supplies, hygiene items, bus tickets, new socks and underwear, diapers, financial assistance to prevent utility shut-off or eviction, and referrals to other services.

This program provides basic needs assistance to families and individuals who are facing a short-term crisis such as a divorce, injury, a large health care bill, car repair, or caring for an ailing family member. These sudden crises can leave families unable to purchase food, clothing, basic supplies, or make their monthly housing and utility payments. Our program serves to make sure that these crises don’t have to leave families hungry, cold, or faced with utility shut-off or eviction.

An applicant seeking assistance will complete a simple form and visit with a caseworker to determine how the household's needs match MCUM's services. Clients are expected to participate in the solutions to their emergency situations and demonstrate progress if returning for additional services. No financial aid is given until all other resources are exhausted, including application to the township trustee.

Tips For Prompt And Professional Assistance
1. Make an appointment - Always attempt to make an appointment. Oftentimes this will save you hours waiting in lines. When on the phone make sure you ask for the documentation needed in order to receive assistance.

2. Do not be late for your appointment - This tip should speak for itself.

3. Dress appropriately - If you want to be treated with respect, dress as appropriately as possible. We are not saying wear a suit. Just make sure you and your clothes are clean and non offensive. We have found that clients who dress in this manner have a better chance of receiving aid.

4. Bring all pre determined documentation - Bring all of the documents you were advised to bring from your appointment phone call. Without them, you will not receive aid.
