The Division of Social Services provides the initial assessment and
eligibility determination of county residents for services provided
by the Department of Health & Social Services. Assessments are
made from a case management standpoint to include all pertinent factors
to assist the client in achieving their greastest level of self-sufficiency.
Social Services focuses on the holistic needs of the client. Social workers
assist clients in becoming self-sufficient, obtaining a job or receiving
training to obtain a better job so that they can meet their goals.
Financial assistance can be provided on a very limited basis to asist in
crisis situations. Ongoing financial assistance is usually not provided to
clients except those meeting specific departmental criteria.
The Division of Social Services has five major intake offices, Neighborhood
Service Centers, each with satellite sites. In addition, the division is responsible for the summer food program,
Community Action Program and the Homeless Recovery Program.
