The Napa Valley Community Foundation is now offering Emergency Financial Assistance (EFA) for residents that meet certain criteria, a release from the foundation said.
Criteria that must be met to be eligible for the financial assistance include those working and live in Napa County, have a household income at or below 120% area median income and "do not qualify for government-sponsored unemployment or paid family leave benefits," the statement said.
Residents must apply for the assistance and an appointment will be made with applicants in the order they stand on a waiting list determined by when they applied. The deadline to apply for assistance is Wednesday, June 30.
EFA will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis. For more information and how to apply, a PDF is available.
