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, as well as to improve client
access to benefits to
which they are entitled. The importance of having this
information will greatly assist residents of Nassau
County. 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.

available for all services provided by the Nassau County
