Family Assistance Program

The Family Assistance Program in Pelham, AL, is dedicated to supporting low-income families with children by providing temporary cash assistance for essential needs. Our mission is to ensure that families have access to financial support that can help them thrive. We focus on assisting those with children under 18, or up to 19 if they are full-time students enrolled in secondary education or vocational training. Through our program, families can apply for critical financial aid at the local Department of Human Resources, with the understanding that adults may receive benefits for a maximum of five years in their lifetime. We are here to help families navigate their challenges and work towards a more stable future.
