I often get requests for information about free assistance for families in Clark County facing homelessness, divorce, child support and custody issues, as well situations such as domestic abuse or food insecurity so I have gathered some common resources in one place.  These are not the universe of what is out there but it is meant to be a start.  Don’t forget to avail yourself of 2-1-1 via United Way of Southern Nevada or, 3-1-1 for non emergency police needs.  9-1-1 of course can be used for emergency situations.
