LA GRANDE — Community Connection of Northeast Oregon has launched a new program in Union County designed to help people get their records and personal documents.

The Personal Identification Document Assistance Program helps cover the cost of renewing, replacing or obtaining identification documents. These include permanent resident cards, birth certificates, identification cards or driver’s licenses.

Applications are available online at Community Connection of Northeast Oregon’s website.

Once completed, applications can be dropped off or mailed to the Union County office, 1504 N. Albany St. Completed applications can also be faxed to Community Connection at 541-963-5932 or emailed to Alex Rees at alex@ccno.org.

Questions about the program can also be directed to Ress via email.

Applications will be reviewed in the order they are received.

Following a brief screening, applicants will be scheduled for an in-person appointment. Community Connection may request the applicant bring additional documentation or paperwork to the appointment depending on the type of identification document the individual is seeking to get.
