I am going to go over a few of these types of assistances and what they are for. Food assistance can be food banks, food stamps, and reduced/free lunch through schools. Cash assistance helps you when you have lost a job and is even a way to get child support. Child care assistance helps low income individuals to be able to afford to go to work by reducing the cost of daycare. An example for this would be a family working a minimum wage job(s) and instead of one of their incomes paying for the daycare they are only paying a small portion. With housing assistance it helps low income families by paying for a portion of their rent, so that they are not living on the streets. Medical assistance is helping those who cannot afford insurance, but is mostly meant for children. Welfare does offer medical for adults and is based on their income. They pay a low fixed monthly payment that they can afford. Welfare is used to basically donates the different taxes to supported programs that provide cash assistance or services to individuals and families who are eligible based off their income and
