THANKSGIVING HELP
If you currently receive SNAP or TANF benefits, you are eligible to participate in Christmas for Kids through Kiwanis 2025. Applications are available at Williams County JFS. Individuals can come to the agency to pick them up, or if they call in we can mail/email them as well.
Also- the PRC Program through Williams County JFS has a program called Santa’s Helper running in November and December that will help families with a singular utility bill, up to $1,500. This is a one-time payment and will not require a disconnection notice. Families must complete a PRC application and request “Santa’s Helper” in the services section. So long as they meet eligibility requirements, we will help! Remember- the PRC Program requires a minor child to be in the home!
We will be celebrating Red Ribbon Week (Living Drug Free) Monday 10/27/25 through Friday 10/31/25 with the following events:
