Programs of Assistance and Eligibility

Grants

• Grants for medical, housing or counseling assistance are offered to individuals demonstrating a financial need. Grant recipients are not required to repay the award, but often do if they have the resources, while others contribute in volunteer hours.

Loans

• Loans are provided to individuals seeking medical, housing, or counseling assistance with all payments made directly to the approved provider. Recipients are required to make partial or full payment on the no-interest loans on a schedule that is designed to fit their budgets. Our experience has shown that those recipients who contribute financially to their own recovery have maintained a stronger sobriety.
