Family Assistance
CCA’s Family Assistance program is designed to fulfill the
immediate and crucial needs of families during crisis. This
may mean the loss of a job, illness, fire or another situation
that limits the family’s access to food, clothing, shelter or
the ability to pay their bills. Our family assistance
program may be able to help with housing, utility or
transportation costs if you meet the criteria outlined below.
