When you meet and discuss your needs with our Information & Referral Specialist (IRS), they will assess your needs by asking some questions of your current situation and future goals. Based on your answer, our IRS will find available programs and services for your needs, compile them in a document, and e-mail it to you. This is your Personalized Settlement Plan. You can print or save your settlement plan in your computer, review it, and take further action by contacting the programs or services.
