The Department of Human Services is committed to providing quality services to the residents in our community. 

If you suspect a child or elderly citizen is being abused or neglected, call 303-636-1750.

The Children, Youth and Family Services Division provides protective services to children and vulnerable adults, foster care and adoption through the County's Embrace a Life program - and other services that help create strong, effective families. If a family needs help or if you want to foster or adopt a child, call us at 303-636-1130.

The Community Support Services Division supports families through financial assistance including (but not limited to) Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, Food Stamps, Medicaid, Aid to the Needy Disabled, Old Age Pension and the Low-income Energy Assistance Program.

Every holiday season Human Services runs our Adopt a Family program to help local families in need. The community is invited to participate and make the holidays special for a family who needs it most. Click on the Adopt a Family link for more information.
