Missouri Revised Statutes Title XL. Additional Executive Departments § 660.175. Department's duties--no reduction in other benefits

The availability of emergency assistance shall not relieve the department of social services of any duty to cooperate with other agencies to reduce dependency nor its obligation to provide assistance in the form of general relief orders in emergency situations not covered by this plan. Receipt of assistance under this plan shall not reduce, offset, or eliminate entitlement to any other assistance provided to any qualified family under any other state or federal program, except as may be required by federal law or regulation.
