Intake Process
Community members can connect with an assigned Case Worker by booking an appointment to begin the application process. During this time, you’ll be supported in gathering and reviewing important documents such as identification, income, and any relevant medical or employment information.
Our team is here to support you. Once approved, ongoing support includes monthly check-ins to help you stay on track and adjust to any life changes.
If you are waiting for a decision from AISH or have received a denial, you are still welcome to apply for support. We’re here to help you explore your options.
