Support in time of need

The Department of Social Services provides child support, financial, flood, food, housing, medical and home assistance for eligible residents of Westchester County while promoting self-sufficiency.

Our child welfare units conduct investigations and family assessments, provide in-home case management and administer foster care and adoption services. We recognize that some segments of our population, adult and children, are vulnerable and require services to assist and protect them.

Heading this department is Commissioner Kevin P. Mahon.
