A little difficult to find but once you do you wont have any trouble finding it again. They offer many programs to help people in need and can help you find food banks and apply for government assistance. The people here are very nice and tell you exactly what they need from you in order to help you qualify for assistance.

I received speedy assistance in a very cordial manner once I realized I must call at opening in order to make a phone interview. However obtaining the new number required me to call 211 and ad I worked 2nd and sometimes 3rd shifts being awake that early to call was not easy fir me.

Nice ladies there but they got mad at me. I got sick and couldnt get my food box so they took me off the list to get one.

Person that waited on us acted like she didnt want to help anyone just wanted to talk to another worker or text. Didnt matter that Ken had so much trouble breathing during the heat and was on oxygen. We needed an ac or fan but she wouldnt put him on list even with dr orders for one. She was rude and obnoxious. I hope we never have to go back. It was a waste of time.

Went to get on pipp and while staff was friendly they werent very helpful or listen to what you tell them. I think if you have no income at all You will do much better than if have an income because the required 30 day income verification then turns into a full year plus tax transcripts from last year meaning they use income from 2017 as well as simply dont listen as to why your bill is so high or that you werent on pipp prior. I hadnt been on pipp prior and my bill was not some back bill but a current bill from AEP estimating my bill too low for 4 months straight then hitting me with the correct amount plus current bill all at once. Just expect if having an income to work a little harder for assistance as well as possibly be asked if you have a woodburner because they know getting tax transcripts will take awhile. I still havent got mine back in the mail and had called that day. On a side note if you apply during a government shutdown you dont need all same verification.

Leads has greatly helped me be able to afford my utilities in both the past, and present. Currently not paying for gas but my electric bill is only 75 dollars a month, which helps alot when you havent got a lot to go on monthly.
