PRC, by design, has been developed to provide benefits and services that are not considered “assistance”. When a benefit or service falls within the definition of “assistance”, there is a set of consequences for the family, including time limits, child support assignment, and data reporting requirements.
The PRC program provides non-recurrent, short-term benefits that are:
- Designed to deal with a specific crisis situation or episode of need;
- Not intended to meet recurrent or ongoing needs; and
- Will not extend beyond four months
Required Verifications include for all household members:
- Photo ID
- Social Security numbers
- All gross income received in the household during 30 days prior to application.
Eligibility factors must be met in order to receive PRC assistance. These factors include:
- Residency in Fulton County
- Household must have one (1) minor child or pregnant individual in 3rd trimester
- Non-custodial parent
- Total gross income of ALL household members is <200% FPL.
- Must work 20 hours per week or equal to the minimum wage at 20 hours per week.
