Ayuda financiera con el alquiler o una factura de calefacci\u00f3n<\/h2>\n\t\t

211 refers many people to the Garrett County Department of Social Services (DSS) in Oakland, Maryland.<\/p>\n

Their Emergency Assistance for Families & Children (EAFC) program provides emergency cash to help families avoid eviction. The funds also help address emergency fuel\/heating shortages.<\/p>\n

The funds are available every 24 months, and there must be a child under 21 living in the household. You’ll also need to show proof that you can maintain ongoing rent and utility bills.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tContact Garrett County DSS\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t

There are also Maryland Energy Assistance grants available from the Office of Home Energy Programs. 211’s guide to utility assistance<\/a> makes it easy to navigate the application, so your request for utility assistance doesn’t get delayed.<\/p>\n
