How to get help with daily living expenses

If you or someone you know needs help with daily living expenses like utility bills, rent and providing food, I urge you to contact either RIFA (Regional Inter-Faith Association) or ARM (Area Relief Ministries). While RIFA is known for their soup kitchen and store, and ARM is known for Room in the Inn, both agencies do so much more. If you have a daily living need that is not being met and you need help, please call them at

RIFA: 133 Airways Blvd, 731-427-7963 www.rifajackson.org

ARM: 108 South Church, 731-423-9257 www.areareliefministries.org

You can call them and tell them your situation, and they can tell you how they might be able to help you. If they can’t help you for some reason, they may be able to direct you to a person or agency that can meet your specific need.

I’ll also soon be adding a page with lots of information on assistance of all kinds, so watch for that!Ā  If you have found an agency or group to be helpful, let me know and I will be sure to include it on my page.Ā  What helped you once just might be what someone else needs now.
