Agency Info

Description: Our family and adult programs assist individuals in reaching their maximum potential of self-sufficiency by providing temporary and appropriate supportive services. We believe that public assistance is a short-term solution and that long-term self-support is the ultimate goal. Our child welfare workers provide protective services to children and teens through education, foster care, counseling, and advocacy. Our child support enforcement division helps children get the financial and medical support they need and deserve by locating non-custodial parents, establishing paternity and assisting with support orders.
