Many of us are dealing with the financial impact of the current economy.  Unfortunately, many times the stresses that are created during difficult times will surface in the work environment.  In an effort to keep our staff informed about support programs that may be of benefit to CICL staff, we will start providing you information as we receive it.  I want to stress that CICL is not endorsing any of these programs, we are simply sharing the information.  It is the individual's responsibility to ensure the integrity of the program and the organization offering the support.

National Employee Benefits Group, Financial Relief Program  888/341-8999, option 1:   This organization bridges the gap between employees and creditors when modifications are needed to re-structure payment rates and terms.

Community Action Partnership (CAP) 937/617-2673:   The CAP is accepting applications for their "Weatherization Assistance" program designed to provide assistance for issues related to seasonal weather.  For example, there may be assistance for window air conditioners or fans in the summer, and energy bills.  The determination is based upon your personal situation.  If you would like an application, feel free to contact me.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
