If anyone you serve is interested in applying for public assistance – cash assistance, food stamps, or Medicaid, they may simply apply at the DCF Access website using this link to initiate the process: https://dcf-access.dcf.state.fl.us/access/index.do. Once approved for the cash assistance or SNAP food assistance, they may be referred to the Welfare Transition Program or SNAP Program for case management, which allows the team to assist them with assessments, work activities, support services (emergency housing, utilities, etc.), referrals, etc. on their path to self-sufficiency.
