A little about this program:

Serving over 300 individuals, this service provides bill paying and banking and budgeting assistance. Additionally, we assure individuals have adequate housing and provide advocacy when needed.

Referrals are made by the Social Security Administration to assist individuals who have been determined unable to manage their financial affairs.

The ESWA Representative Payment Program provides assistance to over 300 of the most vulnerable members of our community: the young, the elderly, and the disabled who are unable to manage their Social Security or Supplemental Security Income benefits. ESWA representative payees receive and handle all aspects of the beneficiary’s Social Security funds and advocate on their behalf.  

Payees supervise payment for:  
• housing and utilities
• food
• medical and dental expenses
• personal care items
• clothing
• rehabilitation expenses (if disabled)
• dependents
