Benefits Data Trust works across the country to increase access to benefits and services that can help eligible people better afford food, housing, medical expenses and more. In addition to working with state government agencies on policy and practice changes to streamline access to programs, we operate Benefits Centers that provide direct enrollment assistance in six states: Maryland, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. Our trained benefits specialists serve individuals with kindness, working to create a dignified and person-centered experience. We screen and apply callers for multiple benefits at once, eliminating the redundancy of navigating and applying for each program separately.
