Don't talk to case integrity they like to force you into signing paperwork after u tell them it's not true so who really is doing fraudulent papers

Very unprofessional from the top down starting with Jennifer Zimmerman the "boss"down the case worker that called me harassing me and threatened me with harassment charges. Lisa Reardon is the one that called me after I asked her boss to contact me which never happened after I even left my contact information on her voicemail. Making assumptions about me and what happened which was all lies according to official court records. Very unprofessional department if I could give a negative rating I would have....

Very rude

My son is down there and his caseworker does not return phone calls or even sends the papers he is supposed to. So then he tells my son he did not recertify that is hard to do when you were not sent the papers to do this with. So whose fault is it?

Did he move? Is his name on the mailbox? If name isn't on box post office cant leave it there. Post office also cannot forward government mail.

This isn’t a question nor answer. This isn’t a statement . DSS is Not even helpful, very disrespectful and rude , if you didn’t like your job you should have found a different job some people really need help and are denied.

First of all dss is a temporary solution with temporary help. To help you so you can find a job and get on your feet. It's not a full life support system anymore. No more lifers getting assistance. It's easier to fill out a job application anyway

Why is it people are disabled cant get help with housing but people with like 6 kids can? Also if we want medicaid we gotta pay a spend down. And getting food stamps is like pulling teeth.

Ivan Niles | Sep 9, 2021

Great question cause I am expected to live off 964.00 a month from disability and that's it!

Don’t ask them for help in any manner. They are the worst humans out there. They don’t really do their jobs. Like why are they closed in the weekends? Children don’t get abused on the weekends? People aren’t homeless or starving on the weekends

If you’re 23 you don’t need permission to move out. Just move out. Adulting is hard. I know.

Stephanie Sparks | Sep 10, 2019

DSS is NOT an ideal place to have to go but they do offer the services needed to get you back on your feet and have the ability to place yourself and your family in temporary secure housing whilst you are getting back on your feet. Give them a shot if you truly have no other options..Also, if you have an eviction notice, take it to DSS ASAP..they may be able to help you stay right where you are.

Leesa Sage | Sep 10, 2018

Ask at CHild Protective Services. DSS may be able to help but not guarenteed but could point you in the right direction. Look up Chlid Protective Services number on Google.

What is the emergency dss number

Jordan Smith | Sep 10, 2018
Lauren MT Old | Sep 10, 2018

The call center number is 778-1100, but for emergency assistance, it's best to go down and apply in person.
