Eleven service areas have published county or regional contacts in every county, including employment rehabilitation and school administration. CPS/DCFS adds published administrative area assignments for all 75 counties; these use the statewide central-office contact and do not establish direct county intake numbers. Food assistance adds six regional food-bank referral territories covering all 75 counties, from a state-linked January 12, 2024 directory; these are not current pantry pickup sites, verified opening hours or universal CSFP participation. Reentry adds eleven published DOC supervision areas covering all 75 counties, with separate Pulaski probation and parole routes; these are not 75 reentry offices or general housing and employment intake lines. Business startup adds seven explicitly published ASBTDC advising territories covering all 75 counties; these do not verify every municipal license, available grant or appointment. Housing and utility contacts now include the state’s county-assigned weatherization providers. Family-safety listings identify shelter locations in 20 counties; call to confirm service area and safe intake. School county assignments are administrative listings, not attendance boundaries. Civil legal assistance uses the provider-published statewide Legal Aid intake route beginning in 2026, distinct from local office coverage or guaranteed representation. Other areas retain statewide or federal referrals where local contacts are unconfirmed.
Conflicting general community-action assignments are withheld; LIHEAP matches use the state Energy Office’s program-specific county list. This does not establish housing or utility funding availability. Vacant county veterans positions retain a published district route. No service-area assignment is inferred from an office’s city. The current ARS contact page and its older PDF disagree about Woodruff routing; confirm with ARS. School and shelter location matches do not establish eligibility.
