Every person should have access to information that will help them obtain assistance for adequate health care, food, clothing, shelter and education.

It is our sincere wish that this online resource handbook will be helpful in providing information to help the community.

We certainly don't claim to have anywhere near all the information that is available out there. One of the great things about the internet is that information is being updated constantly. For that reason we encourage you to look also at other sites for more information
