Information, Referral and Assistance
The Information & Referral/Assistance (I&R/A) Program provides information about human services available in the ten-county Capital Area. The program is staffed by an I&R/A Specialist. We provide information about region-wide resources; assistance to determine your next steps in finding help. For many, this is the first step to making informed decisions about the programs and services that fit their needs. You can contact the IR&A Specialist by phone to discuss information about community resources in our ten county service area.
