You may be eligible even if you work or receive other benefits such as: food stamps, veterans' benefits, or Social Security income.  To request General Assistance, contact your town office. Your application must be accepted for review. You may be turned down for help if you do not meet the guidelines for the program. The application is private and confidential."  -  State DHHS website
