At this time, General Assistance's Emergency Assistance program has reached it's funding limit and come to an end. This means, unfortunately, Alton Township is no longer able to assist families (households with children and very low to no income) in emergency situations (utility disconnect and/or eviction notices) until April 2024, next fiscal year.
