A digital front door for programs and services
Residents struggle to navigate programs and services
Residents seeking help often don't know where to start. Programs are spread across multiple agencies with different eligibility rules, applications, and contact points.
At the same time, staff spend significant time answering routine questions:
“Do I qualify?”
“Where do I apply?”
“What documents do I need?”
“Who should I contact?”
These questions matter — but answering them repeatedly reduces staff capacity for complex cases.
