PLEASE NOTE: There are several organizations in Highland County which provide assistance to anyone in need. Many of these, due to share and federal funding, have income guidelines that must be followed. It is always worth checking resources to determine when and if you might be available for assistance. You are also encouraged to bring social security cards or birth certificates for all members in the household as well as proof of income for the last 3 months. Some organizations are run by volunteer staff. You are encouraged to call first to find out what days and times these agencies are open. For Additional Information and Referral, please call HCCAO at 937-393-3458 and ask for the Outreach Department. |
