Family Assistance Program

The Family Assistance Program in Eight Mile, AL, is dedicated to uplifting low-income families with children by offering essential temporary cash assistance to meet basic needs. We understand the challenges families face, and our mission is to support those with children under 18 or up to 19 if they are enrolled full-time in secondary or vocational training. This program not only provides vital financial support but also empowers families to navigate their circumstances with dignity. To access this assistance, individuals can apply through the local Department of Human Resources, noting that benefits are available for a maximum of five years over a lifetime. We are here to help families thrive during difficult times.
