The American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA) contracts with the Entertainment Community Fund to manage the AGMA Relief Fund. The AGMA Relief Fund provides support and emergency financial assistance to members who are in need.
Services include counseling and referrals for personal, family or work-related problems. Available resources include community programs for legal services, elder care and entitlement benefits. Workshops are offered on how to locate affordable housing, navigate health insurance options and improve financial wellness.
