Associated Ministries

This program delivers financial management services to individuals who are recipients of DSHS, SPIPA, and Social Security and face challenges in handling their finances. Referrals for DSHS and SPIPA clients come directly from those agencies, while Social Security recipients can reach out to Associated Ministries to arrange an appointment for services.

Intake Process: Individuals receiving aid from DSHS or SPIPA will be referred directly by those agencies. Social Security beneficiaries should contact Associated Ministries to initiate the service process.

Fees: For DSHS clients, Associated Ministries invoices DSHS directly, ensuring that no fees are deducted from the payee's funds. For Social Security clients, there is a monthly service fee of $41, but if the client receives less than $410 in a month, the fee is adjusted to 10% of their monthly income.
