Division of Public Assistance

Alaska Connect Portal


 Exciting News!  Introducing Alaska Connect, our new client portal:

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new client portal Alaska Connect, designed to enhance your experience with the Division of Public Assistance. When you sign up through myAlaska or if you already have an existing myAlaska account, you can access your own personal space where you can apply for public assistance programs, renew your benefits, report changes and upload documents all in one place.

We are excited to offer this new user-friendly option for Alaskans who use Public Assistance. More improvements are on the way as we modernize online services and improve the client portal, to include things such as reviewing notices, application status, benefits, and much more. Those Alaskans that do not wish to sign up for the portal can still access our services through our website, offices, and virtual contact center.

If you don't have an email and want to apply for SNAP benefits, complete your SNAP Interim Report, or report change online:

Applicants have the right to file an application to secure their benefit start date with just their name, address, and signature. However, if you submit your application to us without filling out the questions that apply to your case, you will have to answer them before you can get benefits.

If you encounter technical issues while trying to complete or submitting your form, please contact the support desk at aries.ssp.support@alaska.gov.
