Tips for approaching agencies

It may be hard to contact a resource/agency and know what questions to ask, so here is a list!

• How can you help me?
  
• Do I qualify?
• Does it cost anything? If so, how much?
• What are your rules regarding privacy and confidentiality?
  
• In what situations would you have to call/notify my parents?
• Are there any other resources/agencies you know about that I could benefit from?
  
• What are the next steps?

During a call to an agency, take notes on:

• any instructions they give you for after the call (such as documents you might have to bring).
• the name of the person you spoke to and a call back number/email, or keep the original number you called.
• contact information for other agencies they give you.
• the address of any places they may tell you to go to.

If you are having any trouble or confusion, we encourage you to contact us for additional support.
