DuPage Social Service Association (DSSA) is a not-for-profit fund affiliated with DuPage County's Community Services Division since 1998. The mission is to serve residents who are low income, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, and those temporarily in need of financial assistance. Virtually all funds go to direct assistance, and can help pay for a prescription, medical equipment, lab fees/medical bills, housing assistance, utility bills, and more. Clients receiving DSSA funds are those who often fall through the cracks in qualifying for other services and programs. The funds also help expedite assistance to those in emergency situations.
