Arizona Public Assistance

The State Public Assistance Programs consists of:
General Assistance (GA)
Tuberculosis Control (TC)
Child Safety Seat Program

For specific program eligibility requirements, view the Family Assistance policy manual.

The General Assistance Program (GA) provides financial assistance to applicants who are disabled to the degree that they are unemployable and are considered needy.

The Tuberculosis Control (TC) Program determines eligibility and provides assistance for the support of applicants who are certified unemployable by the State Tuberculosis Control Officer as a result of communicable tuberculosis.

The Child Safety Seat Program provides distribution of safety seats to eligible indigent persons with children who need to be restrained in a safety seat while riding in a vehicle. Hospitals, health clinics, and public or private agencies providing shelter services to either victims of domestic violence or to homeless families are responsible for the distribution of the safety seats.
