Like most other townships, Perry is funded by property taxes. Everyone is responsible to the level they can assume - then we step in and help pick up the slack. These may include landlords, mortgage lenders, gas stations, etc. The assistance is not paid to you, but directly to the companies that provide the services you need. We can also provide immediate assistance for basic living requirements, such as rent, housing, transportation, and food. We can put you in touch with private, local, state, and federal organizations that might be able to help. We talk with you about your short and long-term needs.
Perry Township acts as a bridge to help you get out of the emergency situation. We do an intensive client investigation of the situation, environment, and circumstances of your emergency. You come in to the office and speak with a Perry Township staff member to explain the emergency situation and fill out an application for assistance. We're here to help in an emergency, but not with long-term assistance. Instead, we help get people through the onset of a crisis, and point them to the right place for continuing assistance if needed. Perry Township is not an entitlement program that offers ongoing monthly assistance. We are also major sponsors, supporters, and partners with other significant social service agencies.Food Pantry, located at our office (Perry Township residents only).Perry Township offers a number of Programs and Services to help low income people:
