Programs: Bpss provides financial services for the disabled. Funds are collected and distributed on the individuals behalf to secure food, shelter, clothing and personal funds. The agency has 734 clients managed by a staff of 2 ftes. The client fee is $41 per month.
bpss has maintained permanent housing for 100% of clients. The populations served are the most needy of the needy and stable housing is a critical element in keeping them safe. Bpss has had no known cases where a client was without food or utilities during the time they were clients of the agency.
bpss has one mission and one service focus: to provide financial stability to our clients. This requires advocacy, accounting, timely preparation of debt payment and review of billings.
Bill Payment Support services treat adult disabled individuals as if they are their children. They will only give 25$ a week out of Social Security Survivors Benefits.
Someone needs to stop people from taking advantage of the disabled. No one can ever see how much a payee has in their clients account. They can report however much they want to the Social Security Office without ever having to show the bank account that was used for the client.
