State Emergency Relief Application: Eviction & Energy Assistance

In case MiBridges is not cooperating, here is the paper DHS 1514 Application for State Emergency Relief.  This is for past due and shut off notices for electric company payments and for Court Summons level eviction prevention payments.  All other SER forms are obsolete and the DHS worker will have to deny the application.  If the client does not sign it, it will also b denied.   I could not locate the interactive application, online.  If you have it, please share!

I just tried to print it and the print was too large.  You can get this at your local DHS office from the lobby navigator.  Otherwise, I can email it to you, if you  ask me.

Metro Detroit Interfaith Warmth

Metro Detroit Interfaith Warmth

         Metro Detroit Interfaith Warmth is an educational program that is designed to educate everyone at our congregations about what is available to help keep people warm this winter.  Looking at warmth from three different avenues to help make sure people have the tools to stay warm this winter.   1. Utility assistance 2. Energy Efficiency and 3.Weatherization with state and federal funds available for all 3 to provide discounted if not free services.  Until now this information hasn’t been compiled in an easily accessible way that we can share to help keep people warm. 

The next step is to work with individual congregations to figure out the best strategy to get this information out.  This can be through sermons, presentations, workshops or just having the information available where services are provided.  I am here to work with all of you to provide assistance and work with you in whatever way you see fit. Please check out www.metrodetroitinterfaithwarmth.com if you know of other programs beyond this please let me know.

 

Hope all is well and feel free to contact me with any questions, connect me with people you think I should meet or have information that would be useful to the site as I see this as a community resource.

 

Thanks,
