Public Assistance

#FFFFFF

The Department of Human Services assists in the form of financial and medical programs to help individuals and families in Otero County who qualify.

Navigate to the Colorado PEAK website if you are interested in finding out if you and your household qualify for public assistance. Completing the questions does not commit you to applying for assistance, and shouldn't result in stating your household "may not be eligible" for assistance to keep you from applying.
