If You Only Do 3 Things — Emergency Actions to Take

• Stop a same‑day shutoff or eviction filing: Call your utility and ask for a “Cold/Hot Weather Rule” plan under the Missouri Public Service Commission rules, then ask your local legal aid about emergency eviction defense while you line up help from LIHEAP (energy bill help). Use the PSC Consumer Services line 1‑800‑392‑4211 at the same time via Missouri PSC Cold Weather Rule and request energy help through LIHEAP (ECIP) crisis assistance. (psc.mo.gov)
• File for a protection order today if you’re unsafe: Go to your local circuit court clerk for Adult or Child Orders of Protection and ask for help with the forms; if after hours, many police departments can accept filings. Start with Jackson County Orders of Protection or statewide forms via Missouri Courts. (16thcircuit.org)
• Open or enforce child support quickly: Apply online with the Family Support Division and set up direct deposit to speed payments; call 573‑556‑3800 to check application status. Start at Apply for Child Support Services and keep the statewide numbers handy from DSS Toll‑Free Numbers. (dss.mo.gov)

Quick Help Box — Numbers and Links to Keep Handy

• Family Support Division Information Center: 1‑855‑373‑4636 for SNAP, TANF, Child Care, and MO HealthNet; upload documents at myDSS Upload and find offices on DSS Map. (dss.mo.gov)
• Child Support hotlines: General info 1‑800‑859‑7999; enforcement 1‑866‑313‑9960; payment info (IVR) 1‑800‑225‑0530; see DSS Child Support Contact and Custodial Parent page. (dss.mo.gov)

How to Get a Free Lawyer in Missouri (Civil Matters)

When you have a court date or a deadline, call legal aid first. The four regional programs cover all 114 counties and St. Louis city.

• Who to call: Use Legal Services of Eastern Missouri (toll‑free 1‑800‑444‑0514), Legal Aid of Western Missouri (816‑474‑6750), Mid‑Missouri Legal Services (1‑800‑568‑4931), and Legal Services of Southern Missouri (1‑800‑444‑4863). Intake hours and call‑back windows vary by office; LSEM reports 3–5 business‑day callbacks after message. (lsem.org)
• What they handle: Housing, domestic violence, public benefits, consumer issues, expungements, and more; check each program’s coverage list on LAWMO and MMLS Services, and ask about limited‑scope advice if full representation isn’t possible. (lawmo.org)
• Plan B if they’re full: Use The Missouri Bar LawyerSearch to find sliding‑scale attorneys, and check the UMKC‑LAWMO Self‑Help Clinic for limited‑scope guidance if you’re in the Kansas City area. (form.jotform.com)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Call 2‑1‑1 to reach United Way for more referrals and ask court clerks about local pro bono calendars; use Missouri Legal Services self‑help forms if you must file on your own. (lsmo.org)

How to Stop Utility Shutoff in Missouri Today

• Call your utility’s credit department immediately: Ask for a payment plan under the Cold Weather Rule (Nov 1–Mar 31) or Hot Weather Law (Jun 1–Sep 30). Utilities regulated by the PSC cannot disconnect when the forecast meets temperature thresholds; ask for the minimum down payment plan and confirm your elderly/disabled designation if applicable at PSC Cold Weather Rule and learn the summer protections at PSC Hot Weather Law. (psc.mo.gov)
• File for LIHEAP crisis help (ECIP): Winter ECIP can pay up to $800;SummerECIPupto$300, plus emergency cooling items where available; apply through LIHEAP (myDSS) and ask your local Community Action Agency for expedited submission. (mydss.mo.gov)
• Escalate fast if you’re medically fragile: Ask your doctor for a shutoff postponement note and call the PSC Consumer Services line at 1‑800‑392‑4211; review tenant‑friendly summaries on Missouri Legal Services utility rights. (lsmo.org)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask your utility about a 72‑hour disconnection hold during forecasted extremes, which news outlets report is expanding under new state policy; confirm current enforcement with the PSC and request a supervisor review through PSC Consumer Services, then call 2‑1‑1 for local energy funds. (kbia.org)

Missouri Cash, Food, Health, and Child Care — What to Expect, How to Apply

• Where to start online: Use the myDSS portal to apply for SNAP (food), Temporary Assistance (TANF cash), MO HealthNet (Medicaid), and upload documents through myDSS Upload; if you’re stuck, call the FSD Information Center at 1‑855‑373‑4636 or chat via Contact DSS. (mydss.mo.gov)
• Processing timelines to plan around: MO HealthNet can take up to 45 days; TANF (Temporary Assistance) often moves in ~10 days; SNAP typically within 30 days; expedited SNAP may arrive in as few as 7 days; verify your own case using FSD Help & timelines and program manuals posted at DSS Manuals & updates. (mydss.mo.gov)
• If you need child care so you can work or study: Missouri’s Child Care Subsidy uses a sliding fee after approval; as of November 2024 re‑certifications, transitional co‑pays range from $7.50–$10 per full day, depending on income band; see Child Care Subsidy rates and sliding fees and parent instructions at DESE – Families. (dese.mo.gov)
• Postpartum and kids’ coverage have improved: Missouri now provides 12 months of postpartum MO HealthNet coverage after the pregnancy ends; the change took effect with CMS approval on Nov 14, 2023 and continues in 2025; see policy update IM‑105 and Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies. Doulas are also a covered benefit statewide for MO HealthNet pregnancies and during the 12‑month postpartum period; learn more at MO HealthNet Doula Program. (dssmanuals.mo.gov)
• Income limits snapshot (FY2025): Check live income‑limit charts for MO HealthNet, SNAP, and other programs on myDSS Benefit Program Income Limits (as of 4/1/2025); SNAP maximums also adjust each Oct 1 (for FY2025, a 4‑person household maximum is $975) per USDA SNAP COLA 2025. (mydss.mo.gov)

What to do if this doesn’t work: If your application stalls, call the FSD Info Center (1‑855‑373‑4636) and ask for a supervisor callback; if denied, file an appeal to the FSD Director using guidance under About FSD — Appeals while re‑applying with complete verification. (dss.mo.gov)

Quick‑Compare Table — Core Benefits for Missouri Families

According to the codified TANF “percentage of need” table (13 CSR 40‑2.310), the maximum grant equals 34.526% of the Standard of Need for your household size (example: 3 = $292;4=$342). SNAP ceilings for FY2025 are set by USDA’s COLA memo. Always confirm current amounts before you apply. (law.cornell.edu)

Child Support — Open a Case, Modify, or Enforce

• Open a case online: Submit an application and watch for your case‑open letter; Missouri says it can take up to 20 business days to open the case. Start here: Apply for Child Support Services and keep status updates via 573‑556‑3800; keep the general hotlines from DSS Toll‑Free Numbers. (dss.mo.gov)
• Know how support is calculated: Missouri uses Supreme Court Civil Procedure Rule 88.01 and Form 14 with the statewide Schedule of Basic Child Support Obligations; the Family Support Division also follows Rule 88.01 and Form 14 under 13 CSR 40‑102.010. See Form 14 overview, a public calculator at TeamLex Form 14, and the state’s regulation reference 13 CSR 40‑102.010. (form14.wrw.law)
• Modify or enforce orders: Use the self‑help packet for modifications (custody/support) and fee‑waiver motion if you cannot afford filing fees via Missouri Courts — Motion to Modify & In Forma Pauperis; for arrears enforcement, call Enforcement at 1‑866‑313‑9960; payment history is available through the IVR at 1‑800‑225‑0530 from the DSS toll‑free list. (courts.mo.gov)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Talk to your county prosecutor’s child support unit (often works with FSD cases) and ask legal aid about judgment enforcement options; case‑law reminders show courts must base orders on a properly supported Form 14, so ask counsel about appealing if the court skipped that step. See a 2025 appellate example discussing Form 14 usage in C.A.W. v. N.K.D.. (caselaw.findlaw.com)

Domestic Violence, Safety Planning, and Protection Orders

• File and get served quickly: Protection order filings are free; clerks must provide forms and guidance (not legal advice). File in your county; Jackson County posts instructions and after‑hours options; statewide forms and “self‑represented” tools are on Missouri Courts with local filing examples at 16th Circuit Order of Protection. (16thcircuit.org)
• Address confidentiality (mail & legal service shield): Safe at Home provides a substitute address for government and court records and forwards mail for four years; approval generally issues within 5 business days after receipt. Call 1‑866‑509‑1409 and read Eligibility & How to Apply. (sos.mo.gov)
• Crisis help: 24/7 National DV Hotline 1‑800‑799‑7233; RAINN 1‑800‑656‑4673; Missouri Deaf Crisis VP 321‑800‑3323. Find shelters and advocates via DSS Domestic Violence Shelters & Services and the statewide directory linked by DHSS Sexual Violence Services. (dss.mo.gov)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask legal aid for representation limited to DV‑related family law; if needed, file “in forma pauperis” to waive fees and request sheriff service at no cost under indigency rules via Missouri In Forma Pauperis guidance. (courts.mo.gov)

Housing & Evictions — Local Differences That Matter

• Kansas City (Right to Counsel): Tenants in Kansas City limits have a city‑funded attorney for eviction cases; intake is managed through a single navigator line at 816‑474‑5112; learn more from Kansas City Star explainer and see United Way announcement. For broader tenant support, call Heartland Center for Jobs & Freedom at 816‑278‑1344. (kansascity.com)
• St. Louis region (no RTC yet, but strong help): Call the EHOC eviction hotline (314‑534‑5800, Option 1) and connect with ArchCity Defenders and Legal Services of Eastern Missouri for defense and rental‑rights education. (regionalresponseteam.org)
• Self‑help if you must: Check your case and deadlines on Case.net via Missouri Courts; bring lease, rent ledger, notices, and all repairs photos to court; ask the judge for time to seek counsel if you reach court without one. For Jackson County court contacts, see 16th Circuit Domestic Violence/Protection Orders pages which also list clerk phone numbers and locations. (16thcircuit.org)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask your judge for a brief continuance to obtain counsel; call 2‑1‑1 and your local Community Action Agency for back rent utilities; in KC, ask the court to connect you to the Right‑to‑Counsel navigator line. (kansascity.com)

Records Clearing — Expungements You Can Use

• What you can expunge: Missouri’s §610.140 allows many arrests and convictions to be expunged with lifetime caps (as of 1/1/2025, up to two felonies and three misdemeanors), but excludes serious offenses; courts have reiterated class A felonies are not expungable. Review the updated statute at §610.140 (effective 1/1/2025) and recent appellate decisions on limits (D.V.J. v. MSHP). (casetext.com)
• How to file: Use the expungement petition and instructions posted by many circuits and statewide forms; see 13th Circuit expungement forms and community toolkit options like the Missouri Public Expungement Tool to draft papers; ask the court for a fee waiver if you’re indigent. (courts.mo.gov)
• Timeline reality: After service on agencies, courts typically hold a hearing 30–60 days after service or objection; decisions can take months. See plain‑language overview at Missouri Legal Services — Understanding Expungement. (lsmo.org)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask legal aid about alternative remedies (closed records, pardons) and whether you’re eligible to refile after one year if dismissed under §610.140. (law.justia.com)

Driver’s License — Getting Legal to Drive for Work and Kids

• Limited Driving Privilege (LDP): If your license is suspended/revoked and not yet eligible for reinstatement, you may qualify for an LDP (“hardship license”) for work, school, medical, court, and child‑care travel; apply with DOR LDP instructions and form 4595 at DOR Forms. Some alcohol‑related actions require ignition interlock and SR‑22. (dor.mo.gov)
• Restricted Driving Privilege (RDP) for first alcohol offense: You may be eligible for a 90‑day interlock RDP if you act within 15 days of the notice; see DOR RDP details and the Reinstatement Requirements checklist. (dor.mo.gov)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask legal aid about a court‑petitioned LDP if you have a 5‑ or 10‑year denial and confirm interlock/SR‑22 needs with the DOR help line listed on the LDP page. (dor.mo.gov)

Health Coverage for You and Your Kids (MO HealthNet)

• Apply and pick a plan: Apply by phone at 1‑855‑373‑9994 or online via MO HealthNet Apply and check plan materials at MO HealthNet Division; pregnant members and new moms can access doula services and 12‑month postpartum coverage. (mydss.mo.gov)
• Income quick check: Use the live Benefit Program Income Limits chart (as of 4/1/2025) to see if you qualify for pregnant women, kids under 19, and Expansion Adults. Kids now have 12‑month continuous coverage once enrolled; see Continuous Eligibility for Children FAQs. (mydss.mo.gov)

What to do if this doesn’t work: Call your managed care plan (numbers listed at DSS Toll‑Free Numbers) or Constituent Services (1‑800‑392‑2161) if you cannot reach your caseworker. (dss.mo.gov)

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Missing hearings or interviews: Courts and DSS will deny or default your case if you skip dates. Always check Case.net deadlines on Missouri Courts and interview times mailed by myDSS.
• Not asking for a fee waiver: If you can’t pay filing fees, attach an “in forma pauperis” motion when you file; the court must consider it; see Fee‑waiver info and family self‑help form sets at Representing Yourself. (courts.mo.gov)
• Assuming energy shutoff is final: Regulated utilities must honor weather protections and payment arrangements; call the PSC hotline at 1‑800‑392‑4211 and read Cold Weather Rule and Hot Weather Law. (psc.mo.gov)

Reality Check: Funding runs out. LIHEAP crisis funds and local rental funds open and close based on dollars available. Always call to confirm current availability and ask to be put on a waiting or cancellation list. Start with LIHEAP and your local Community Action Agency found via DSS Map. (mydss.mo.gov)
