Applying for Benefits

Unemployment

Many small businesses have already disbanded their workforces. If you, like millions of other Americans, are currently unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Indiana Department of Workforce Development (DWD) has the answers to all of your questions. The sooner you apply, the sooner you can start receiving assistance.

Individual + Family Support

The Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) was established to aid Hoosiers in finding state-funded services such as caring for the elderly, single parents, children, and much more. Through the FSSA you can apply for the Supplemental Nutrition Program (SNAP), Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), Medicaid, and other important programs that can help Region residents through a rocky economic time.
