Connecting You with the Resources You Need

We have dedicated staff that can help you find local resources, refer you to local programs, and screen you for the programs offered by the FTAAAD.

Our agency and staff are certified through the AIRS program, which means we are trained to help you find the resources to meet your needs. We can provide contact information or referrals for various programs or resources. Common topics include food banks, financial need programs, transportation, housing, and legal services.
