Emergency General Assistance provides short-term, one-time assistance for persons in a financial crisis because of fire, flood, storm, illness, accident, theft, utility shut-off, eviction, rent deposit, foreclosure, moving expense, necessary home repairs, or need for furniture or appliance replacement or repair.
