Basic Needs Assistance

Basic Needs Assistance is dedicated to providing immediate, short-term support to residents facing financial hardships in Montgomery Village, MD, and the surrounding southern Montgomery County area. Our mission focuses on preventing homelessness and food insecurity through a variety of vital services designed to support families in crisis. We offer rent assistance to those on the brink of eviction, utility support for individuals facing disconnection, and prescription assistance for those in need with a verified physician's prescription. Additionally, our emergency food service delivers grocery bags containing a three-day supply of nutritious food to households in urgent need. Our commitment extends beyond immediate assistance, as we also provide referrals to additional resources to help families regain stability.
