Applications can be done via online, mail, or phone (phone hours are still limited due to the pandemic).
Adaptive Modification Program
AMP is designed to help individuals with permanent physical disabilities
live more independently in their homes. It provides adaptations to a
house or an apartment, allowing easier access to and mobility within the
home. Incomes guidelines apply for AMP as well. If you would like to

GENERAL ELECTION 2020
Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.
Voting is one of the most important things U.S. citizens can do. Our city benefits when everyone makes their voice heard.
Whether voters choose to vote by mail or at the polls, all voting options are safe, legitimate, and secure.
This post below will cover how Philadelphians can:
Register to vote
Apply to vote by mail-in or absentee ballot
Turn in a mail-in ballot
Vote at the polls
Remember, it is recommended that if you are sending any applications or ballots through the mail, make sure to mail them EARLY.
October 19 is the deadline to register to vote in Pennsylvania.
October 27 at 5 p.m. is the last day for your county office to receive mail-in and absentee ballot applications
November 3 is the day of the General
Election. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. As long as you are in
line by 8 p.m., you will be able to vote. Voted mail-in and absentee
ballots must also be received by 8 p.m. on Election Day.
If you have any other questions, the Philadelphia City Commissioner’s website provides useful information for voters regarding upcoming elections. You can also visit VotesPA for any statewide updates and general information about voting in Pennsylvania.
COVID-19
has changed what “back to school” means for most Philadelphia students
and their families. As classes resume, the City and partners have
created new programs to support students’ learning and their families’
stability.
