Financial Assistance · Florida · Free

Small emergency grants for low-income workers facing temporary crisis. Worth contacting for anyone facing eviction, utility shutoff, or a sudden out-of-pocket prescription cost they can't cover. LIHEAP applications open in late fall in most states; apply early — funds run out before the cold sets in. Patient assistance programs run by drug manufacturers often cover the full cost of expensive prescriptions for low-income seniors. Open at no cost to Florida seniors and the families supporting them.
