OFFICE OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH

 
 
The Office of Community Outreach of the Nassau County Department of Social Services is designed to inform the communities of Nassau County of the services that are available for our residents. The Nassau County Department of Social Services administers many social service programs established and funded at the federal, state, and local government levels. 
The objective of the Office of Community Outreach is to broaden public knowledge of our programs and procedures, but also to improve client access to benefits to which they are entitled. The importance of having this information will greatly assist residents of Nassau County. Recently, County Executive Tom Suozzi stated, "Information is key in helping to bridge our communities together." Program staff from the department are available upon request to travel throughout Nassau County, to conduct presentations and informational forums on the various programs offered by the department. 

Informational presentations are available for all services provided by the Nassau County Department of Social Services. Such services include: 
Adoption, Adult Services, AIDS Services, Child protective Services, Child Support Enforcement, Day Care, Domestic Violence, Emergency Services, Employment for Temporary Assistance Clients, Food Stamps, Temporary Assistance Fraud, Home Energy Assistance Program, Housing and Homeless Prevention, Medicaid, Medicaid Managed Care, Services to Children and Families, and Temporary Assistance 

To have a representative from the Nassau County Department of Social Services speak at your meeting or event is a very simple process. Simply decide upon the topic that best suits the interest or concerns of your group or community, then call the Office of Community Outreach at (516) 227-7406, or write to the Department of Social Services, Office of Community Outreach, 60 Charles Lindbergh Blvd., Mineola,  NY  11553-3686 and we will promptly arrange to have a speaker at your event at the next available date.
