Working in partnership with the City of Rockville, the Rockville
Emergency Assistance Program helps individuals and families in the
Greater Rockville area with emergency financial assistance. Our
services include helping pay rent or mortgage when facing evictions or
foreclosures, utility bills including water bills when facing a
discontinuation of service and help pay for prescriptions.  In recent
years, we have helped more than 1,000 individuals and families each
year with financial assistance to avoid hardships and the taking away
of basic needs: housing and utility services.  REAP also helps in other
ways by providing over 3,000 referrals each year to area resources for
food, clothing, dental and vision care.

The type of individuals and families REAP serves varies greatly.  We
help all in need who live in the Greater Rockville area regardless of
age, gender, race or ethnicity, or religion.  A typical client is a single
mother with four or five children desperately trying to make ends meet.
 Many of our clients are also the homeless, low income disabled,
older adults, the unemployed, and the working poor.
REAP
Currently, we are located at Jefferson House at 111 West Jefferson Street.  The house is behind CMR's former
