Program Services: Emergency
Services
United Way
Emergency Fund
This is a client-focused
program designed to meet the individual needs of families
by providing emergency services such as prescriptions,
dental services, payment of water bills and medical supplies.
Home Heating Assistance
Heat during
our winters is essential. Many low-income and fixed income
individuals are deeply affected by large increases in
heating costs. This CCAP program provides assistance to
low-income households to make home heating more affordable.
The program can assist in avoiding shutoff of utility
services during the winter and maintain a warm and safe
home environment. Furnace repair/replacement is also available
for home-owners.
Private
Fuel Fund
The Coastal
Community Action Program administers two private fuel
funds that rely on donations from the community. 100%
of the donated funds are used to pay for heating bills
for low-income families living in Grays Harbor County.
- PROJECT
HELP: A
partnership with Grays Harbor PUD to assist
with disconnected bills or deposits up to $150.00.
- WINTER
HELP: A
partnership with Cascade Gas to assist with disconnect
gas bills or deposits.
Student Needs
Assessment Program
No child should
go to the first day of the school year unprepared. Just
before school starts every year, CCAP offers school supplies
to low income families.
Shelter Assistance
This program
is designed to provide short-term, facility-based shelter
services for homeless families with children. Families
will be required to participate in a short-term case management
program to assist them in finding and retaining permanent,
affordable housing and securing income.
