Hampshire County Council has awarded an interim contract for the management and delivery of services under the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Crisis Resilience Fund (CRF), which replaces the Household Support Fund.
The CRF provides timely support to households experiencing financial hardship, helping residents meet essential living costs whilst supporting longer-term financial resilience.
The contract includes eligibility assessment, crisis triage, decision-making, administration and delivery of crisis payments, financial resilience support, monitoring and reporting, partnership working, and payment administration.
