Why should someone apply for Emergency Assistance?

General Rule: Someone who is facing an emergency situation or who is in crisis can apply. Some examples of what this might look like include:

  • They are being evicted from their home for an illegal act
  • They are leaving an abusive relationship
  • Their child will no longer be able to keep living with them
  • They are moving because they fear for their safety
  • Their physical health or the health of a member of their family is or will be in danger
