About Bolivar Township Public Assistance- Benton County

A township trustee is an elected official who is responsible, among other things, for the care of the poor in the township.

This may include food aid, shelter, utilities (no bills, deposits, reconnection fees or penalties), clothing, household supplies, medical services, and funeral expenses.

Each township has more or less different guidelines based on the standards set by the state.


Every county in Indiana is divided into municipalities.


In some larger, more populated cities, the trustee may have the staff to assist in the application process.

To apply for help, contact the township trustee in charge.

Others take over the process themselves.


Applicants may be asked to provide documentation such as income and bills.

If denied services, the applicant must receive a PR-1A form stating the reason for the denial.
