Who We Are

The Alliance for Interfaith Ministries (AIM) provides emergency assistance to families who are threatened with homelessness, loss of power or fuel, or other temporary financial emergencies. AIM Assistance Application can be completed online.  The application can also be used for an emergency assistance request related to COVID-19, the coronavirus.



AIM works with CARES (Coalition for Assisting Residents in Emergency Situations), which is the intake and assessment agency.  Every emergency is documented and verified.  During an appointment with AIM, the client is provided with a voucher for a specific service.  The client takes the voucher to the service provider who signs it and returns it to AIM.  The Alliance sends payment directly to the service provider.
