One of our major goals is community outreach many people in our community can benefit from the assistance DSS provides. It is our goal to ensure members of the community are informed about our services and have access to our offices.*To get help in finding a job or getting in touch with job training opportunities*To get temporary financial help between jobs*To get benefits while working in a lower wage job that doesnt provide health insurance for your children*To get CalFresh, (formerly food stamps), to help overcome hunger*To get home care if you are aged or disabled so you can stay in your home rather than a nursing home or other institutional setting*To see to it that children are not abused or neglected by their parents or guardians*And, to support elders who may be facing exploitation or neglect.
