The Social Service for the Homeless (SSH) program provides assistance to New Jersey Atlantic County residents who are at risk of homelessness but are ineligible for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families welfare, General Assistance welfare or Supplemental Security Income. 

SSH funding is used solely to assist individuals and families who are experiencing short term, non-recurring emergencies.  SSH is not ongoing for participants; it is short term assistance for individuals and families who will be able to sustain themselves after this short-term assistance is provided.  Your total expenses cannot exceed your income. 

The Atlantic City Free Public Library is offering free financial literacy classes at the William K. Cheatham Building (Main Library). The classes will cover savings on Sept. 22, fraud/ID theft on Oct. 20 and budgeting on Oct. 27. Registration is not required.

The Atlantic County Division of Public Health is offering free flu vaccine clinics for residents 18 years of age and older throughout the county. For more information, please call (609) 645-5933 or visit the website below.
