3032 Diversion Assistance

Administrative Notice A-05-2004. Diversion Assistance is intended to help a family through a financial problem which jeopardizes employment and which, if not solved, could result in the family needing regular ongoing assistance. When the primary case worker and the client agree that the one-time payment will alleviate the crisis, Diversion Assistance will be explored. The Diversion Assistance payment will not exceed $1,500 or the financial need resulting from the crisis, whichever is less. Diversion Assistance is not a supplement to regular assistance but is in place of it. Diversion Assistance is available to both applicant and recipient families.
