emergency support
ASSIST is an emergency support program that assists people who are facing homelessness or other emergencies. We conduct a comprehensive assessment of need and provide vouchers for financial assistance to eligible individuals and families, as well as information and referrals to a wide variety of community resources. The ASSIST office is located in our Fowler Literacy Center building: 200 Ferry Street, Easton, PA.
The program is intended to help people in crisis to establish stability and to assist them in moving to a more secure future.
ProJeCt is part of the Pennsylvania Continuum of Care and utilizes Coordinated Entry / Pennsylvania 2-1-1 to assist those who are at-risk of homelessness. Pennsylvania 2-1-1 East is a free, confidential, non-emergency, comprehensive information and referral service that connects Northampton County residents with the health and human services they need.
You can reach 2-1-1 by dialing 2-1-1 or (855) 567-5341. 2-1-1 is not intended for emergency use. If you have an emergency, call 9-1-1.
