Social Services
Social Services is dedicated to providing
those services that make life easier and more manageable. We also provide
many programs for the elders in our communities, we feel that it is
through these individuals that a connection to the past can be made here in the
present.
We employ a
staff
of highly motivated individuals who strive to help the public that they
serve in any way possible. Social Services is funded by
grants that are provided from many sources.
