Residents of the Town of Burlington are asked to read the following information and call Eleanor Parente if you find yourselves in a position of needing assistance.

Burlington offers assistance for those residents who are in need of eye care, pediatric dentistry and any other catastrophic occurrences. These services are available for all ages.

Our Food and Fuel Bank is made available through generous donations of non-perishable good and money. We provide food baskets during the holiday season for those residents who need a little help. Santa arrives for kids up to high school age, as well.

Applications for assistance are available on-line or at the First Selectman's Office and are kept in strict confidence. Download the Assistance Applicaton now.
