Program details
How it works
Fulton County’s Temporary & Emergency Assistance page says the county offers emergency help through three programs: Emergency Assistance to Needy Families (EAF), Emergency Assistance to Adults (EAA), and Emergency Safety Net Assistance (ESNA).
What the money covers
The page says these programs are designed to meet one-time, non-recurrent emergency situations. Examples listed include homelessness, fuel needs, and utility shutoffs.
How to apply
The page says you can complete and submit an application in person or by mail. Most interviews are scheduled after the application is received. You can also walk in to the Department of Social Services to be screened for emergencies and schedule an interview. If you have an emergency, you may be able to get a same-day appointment after screening.
Notes for homeowners
This is emergency relief rather than a home-hardening grant, but it can help households facing disaster-related heating or utility emergencies.
