My friend came to your agency and got a "large check." I want to know if I am eligible for this program.

Work First Family Assistance includes a program called "benefit diversion" where a family may qualify for a three-month-cash-benefit lumped into one amount. This lump sum amount if paid, instead of ongoing monthly benefits. As with most programs, eligibility conditions apply and this program is designed to meet the needs of applicants with a likely offer of employment.
