The Direct Assistance Program (DAP)

The Direct Assistance Program (DAP) in Algonquin, IL, is committed to uplifting individuals and families facing homelessness and financial hardship by providing essential emergency financial aid. Our program offers a compassionate and structured approach to meet urgent needs, offering support for transportation, clothing, footwear, utilities, prescriptions, car repairs, and rent assistance.
