Social Assistance Management System (SAMS) - Information for Subrecipients


Logging Into SAMS

  • Current ADSD subrecipients may log into WellSky A&D (SAMS).
  • If you have forgotten your password, click the "Forgot Password" link on the log-in page.
  • If you are locked out of the system due to entering the wrong password multiple times, wait approximately 30 minutes and try again.
  • All subrecipients are to use SAMS 3. Do not access the SAMS 3 Sandbox unless told to do so.
  • If you forget your password for the SAMS 3 log-in (the second set of log-in credentials), submit a helpdesk ticket through the ADSD IT Helpdesk portal linked below.

    Training

    SAMS tutorials are available on the WellSky website, which is the screen that appears after the first log-in. If you have any questions about training, please contact your assigned Grants and Projects Specialist directly.  

    Per the General Service Specifications, subrecipients must also have an internal SAMS manual, which must be kept up-to-date and used to train subrecipient staff on SAMS procedures specific to the funded program(s).

      Support

      All requests for SAMS assistance must be sent to your assigned Grants and Projects Specialist (GPS) before ADSD's Helpdesk. The exception to this rule is when a password reset is needed or there is an error notification that would clearly require an IT professional. Do not contact IT directly to update SAMS license users for your agency. Please email your GPS.
