A Hoarding Alliance local resource guide
A calm starting point for hoarding support, safety questions, and practical next steps in Parker and across La Paz County.
Start here - Fight the Blight
You do not have to solve everything at once. Start with the pathway that best matches the situation, then confirm current availability, boundaries, cost, and travel before relying on any program.
Ask what a first conversation would cover or how a virtual group works. You can ask without sending photos or arranging a home visit.
Role: nonprofit front door for hoarding support and virtual groups; geography: ask about joining online from Parker or elsewhere in La Paz County; cost/eligibility: confirm registration, group fit, and any fees; funded local home services are not assumed; emergency limit: not therapy or emergency response.
If there is immediate danger, smoke or fire, a medical emergency, or someone cannot safely exit, call 911. For a mental-health crisis or thoughts of suicide, call or text 988. These emergency pathways are not general cleanup or service-navigation lines.
First conversations
You do not need to know the perfect service name before reaching out. These organizations can help you understand the landscape and identify a next step.
Use this pathway when private-pay support may fit. Confirm the service scope, rate, travel, and what preparation is expected before scheduling.
Use Unburied for judgment-free peer support, structured tools, groups, and ongoing momentum between local conversations.
Use 211 when you need help identifying a current program or the right local office, then confirm eligibility and availability directly.
Safety and stability
These pathways serve different situations. Read the labels carefully before calling, especially when a response may involve crisis care, protective services, shelter, housing rules, legal advocacy, or emergency dispatch.
Call 911 when there is immediate danger, smoke or fire, a medical emergency, or an urgent threat to someone's safety.
Call or text 988 for a mental-health crisis, suicidal thoughts, or urgent emotional distress. You can also use the 988 website to learn more.
Use the official 988 site if calling or texting is difficult, or if you want to understand what the crisis line can and cannot do.
La Paz Regional Hospital is a 25-bed critical-access hospital in Parker. Confirm the current department, arrival instructions, and coverage before relying on a non-emergency visit.
Ask which current county or partner program fits the need. The county page says service coverage includes Parker and surrounding communities.
Use the county health and human-services page to find the current public-health contact and ask for the right pathway rather than assuming one program serves every need.
The county's current public-records page includes official department contacts, including the Sheriff. Use non-emergency routing only when there is no immediate danger.
Use the Town of Parker's official government page for the current police pathway. A police response does not replace a support plan or clinical care.
The current county plan identifies emergency management and public-safety departments. Use the county or town site to locate the right contact before requesting guidance.
Use this page to think about exits, smoke alarms, fire load, and responder access. It does not determine local code compliance or certify a home as safe.
Use the state page when you need official facility or licensing information, and confirm the correct agency before relying on a listing.
Use current state guidance during extreme heat or weather. Hoarding-related access and exit concerns can increase risk, but this page is not a home inspection.
People and practical help
These listings connect the local community with housing, food, behavioral health, benefits, transit, survivor advocacy, disability support, peer support, and practical resources. Ask about current availability, cost, scope, consent, and safety before relying on them.
Start with the town's current website when you need the right office for a property, code, neighborhood, public works, water, or resident question.
Use the government page to route questions about police, public works, community development, the library, town code, or public notices.
Use this page for planning and zoning questions, then ask the town which office handles a specific address or safety concern.
Use the staff page when a general web form is not enough, but share only the information needed to route the question.
Use the county website to find the current department for public health, human services, property, courts, libraries, transit, or other county questions.
Ask the county what is currently available and whether a partner such as WACOG or a health program is the right next step.
The county page says schedules can change and reservations are needed. Call the current transit contact before planning a trip.
A library can be a low-pressure place to use a computer, print forms, or ask for information. Confirm what the library can provide today.
Use the county's contact page to avoid guessing which office handles a property, benefits, records, safety, or public-works question.
Use the hospital's facilities page to understand the current care locations, then call the hospital with questions about the appropriate service.

Use the official state site for current benefit and basic-needs pathways. Read the program-specific requirements rather than assuming one application fits every need.
Use the official state page to understand coverage pathways, then ask the member's plan or provider about current network and referral requirements.
A note from the Alliance
This guide is anchored in Parker, Arizona, and includes city, county, state, nonprofit, national, and independent pathways. A listing here does not mean Fight the Blight endorses every provider or can guarantee availability. The Hoarding Alliance is not a city or county agency, therapy practice, emergency service, or cleanup company. We will keep reviewing this page, but please confirm details directly before relying on them.
