Hamilton County’s 513Relief Bus Services Return this Spring

Hamilton County’s 513Relief team returns to the community in the coming weeks to continue providing pandemic relief and other social services.  Funded by Hamilton County Commissioners in partnership with Hamilton County Public Health and Hamilton County Job and Family Services (HCJFS), the 513Relief team provides resources directly to residents using a community-based approach.

While a new 513Relief Bus is being constructed and will be unveiled later this year, the 513Relief Bus team will still travel around the County helping residents apply for social services, COVID-19 recovery programs, and receive COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters. Stay tuned for calendar updates.

A complete list of of no-cost resources provided by the 513Relief team is below. 

No-Cost Resources
