Representative Payee or Federal Fiduciary services are a way individuals struggling to or are unable to manage their finances find a means to maintain financial stability while gaining the skills and discipline necessary to acquire financial responsibility. If the end goal is money management independence or long term financial assistance by a third party, we provide a service that is individualized to the needs of the consumer.

We work closely with case managers, family members, social workers, physicians/psychiatrists, and clients to meet financial needs and basic living expenses. We provide structured financial assistance in order to teach responsibility, discipline, and money management skills that contribute to long term success. The representative payee/federal fiduciary program provides a time-frame for financial stability to be established or permanent financial assurances.

​We are offer the unique opportunity for individuals that do not receive social security benefits or veterans benefits to receive the same money management services that will allow them to achieve financial stability with whatever income they receive.
