We encourage those who can use the ACCESS HRA website to take advantage of all it has to offer (including benefit application submissions and case management). Community-Based Organizations also provide help with completing applications and screening applicants for eligibility to the various programs. Some locations can also help with submitting documents to DSS electronically.
You can get more information by contacting a Community-Based Organization listed by borough below. The hours of operation for these sites may change.
Some Community Based Organization locations now require an appointment for in-person service. Please call the location for more information.
In addition to the online and Community-Based Organization resources below, you can get help applying for HRA benefits at our centers and offices throughout the City. Visit the HRA Center Locations page for more information.
