The Arizona Cash Assistance Program provides temporary cash assistance and supportive services to children, individuals, and their families. The Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) EDGE System is used to issue cash assistance payments. Participants are able to access their benefits from their assigned account by using a plastic debit card called QUEST . The debit card can be used at Automated Teller Machines (ATM) and Point of Sale (POS) devices located at most stores.

In order to qualify for this benefit program, you must be a resident of the State of Arizona, either pregnant or responsible for a child under 19 years of age, a US national, citizen, legal alien, or permanent resident, have low or very low income, and be either under-employed (working for very low wages), unemployed or about to become unemployed.

For questions, additional information, or to apply for Cash Assistance, please contact one of our Local Family Assistance Administration Offices (FAA).
