Housing Programs

Housing Choice Voucher Program

The Housing Choice Voucher Program, designed specifically for seniors, people with disabilities, and low-income families, is a federal initiative that provides low-income housing options and rent assistance. Vouchers are available through your local public housing agency (PHA). This program empowers and encourages participants to select their own housing. The housing options do not have to be part of subsidized housing projects, but there are limits on unit size. Typically, participants must pay 30% of their monthly adjusted income towards their rent, with the voucher program covering the remainder. Eligibility: Applicant income and family size help the PHA determine eligibility. Citizenship and eligible immigration status also play a factor. The family’s income cannot exceed 50% of the median income for the county or metropolitan area where they’re applying to live. Of the vouchers, 75% must go to people whose income is at or less than 30% of their area’s median income. Application: Contact your local public housing agency.

Exploring the Resources and Opportunities with Wyoming’s Community Support Organizations

Wyoming, known for its breathtaking landscapes and resilient communities, is also home to a rich network of organizations that foster economic growth and support low-income families. From grant opportunities to advocacy and networking, these entities play a crucial role in building a stronger, more inclusive Wyoming. Let’s dive into some key organizations and their offerings.

Yellowstone Country Assistance Network: A Beacon of Support

The Yellowstone Country Assistance Network is a pivotal resource, especially with its Community Services Block Grant program. This initiative, backed by Public Law 97-35 [Section 675(c) and (4)], is set to distribute crucial funding to Park County and Hot Spring County to empower community-based organizations. These funds are designated for services that assist low-income individuals and families, reinforcing the support structure within these communities.

Organizations interested in applying for this grant should mark their calendars and contact ycan on the first of May to apply by emailing ycanhelp@protonmail.com.

Wyoming Nonprofit Network: Strengthening the Sector

The Wyoming Nonprofit Network acts as the collective voice of the state’s charitable sector, delivering best practices, resources, and unwavering support to nonprofits. Located at 822 West 23rd Street, Unit A, Cheyenne, this network is instrumental in elevating the impact of nonprofits across Wyoming.

Wyoming Community Foundation: Connecting People and Causes

With over 30 years under its belt, the Wyoming Community Foundation has been a pivotal force in connecting donors with causes that matter, cumulatively granting nearly $100 million to various initiatives. Their efforts underscore the importance of philanthropy in building a better Wyoming.

Wyoming Economic Development Association (WEDA): Fueling Economic Growth

WEDA stands as a unique nonprofit 501(c)(6) professional association, fostering economic development across nearly 200 member organizations. From professional development scholarships to lobbying efforts, WEDA is a cornerstone for economic growth and job creation in Wyoming.

Wyoming State Chamber of Commerce: Advocating for Business

The Wyoming State Chamber of Commerce (WSCC) is a key advocate for the business community, working tirelessly at the state legislative level and supporting local Chambers in their endeavors to create a vibrant business environment.

Wyoming Business Alliance: A Unified Voice for Business

As Wyoming’s premier business advocate, the Wyoming Business Alliance ensures a unified and lasting voice for the business sector. Their work in facilitating a proactive business climate is essential for the state’s economic well-being.

Wyoming Business Council: Diversifying the Economy

Since 1998, the Wyoming Business Council has been at the forefront of tackling one of the state’s most persistent challenges: economic diversification. Their work is critical in paving the way for a more varied and resilient economic landscape.

Wyoming Main Street and More: Supporting Business and Community Development

The Wyoming Main Street program, along with the Business Ready Community Grant and Loan Program and other initiatives, are vital in supporting businesses seeking financing, workforce development, broadband development, and more.

These organizations and their programs illustrate the vibrant ecosystem of support available in Wyoming for individuals, families, and businesses. Through grants, advocacy, and a host of other resources, they are essential pillars in the ongoing effort to foster a thriving, inclusive Wyoming. Whether you’re part of a nonprofit, a business owner, or an individual looking to make a difference, there’s a wealth of opportunities to explore and contribute to the betterment of the Cowboy State.

# Supporting Single-Parent Families with Child Support Services Child Support Services – Yellowstone Country Assistance Network

Our Mission in Park & Hot Springs Counties

The Yellowstone Country Assistance Network (YCAN), through a Community Services Block Grant (CSBG), addresses poverty in Cody, Powell, Meeteetse, Ralston (Park County), and Thermopolis, East Thermopolis, Kirby (Hot Springs County). We connect single-parent families with essential child support and childcare services to foster empowerment and stability. In compliance with the federal CSBG Act (42 U.S.C. Β§ 9919(b)), we: 1. Inform custodial parents in single-parent families that participate in CSBG-funded programs, activities, or services about the availability of child support services; and 2. Refer eligible parents to the child support offices of state and local governments.

Streamlined Support Process

Step 1: Application

Complete a CSBG application with your referring case manager to begin the process. You will be asked if you are a single parent in need of child support services from Wyoming Child Support Offices.

Step 2: Online Resources

Visit our Website Services Page or Wyoming Child Support Services for comprehensive information.

Step 3: Information Flyers
