South County Services - a Community Safety Net
Toward our goal of building a safety net and ensuring the well being of Individuals,families
and seniors in the South County region, we offer support and assistance in several areas. We
have an array of resources for people needing help to feed their families, stay in their homes,
get assistance in acquiring transportation,and access medical exams that are no-cost or
low-cost, among other services.
We aim to serve the diversity of people within our region from children to families and seniors.
Our success is based on the hard work of a small staff and a strong core of volunteers.

Community Resources**
To offer this wide array of safety net services to the community we rely on
partnerships with local churches, businesses, school districts, county and city
government agencies, civic groups and individual donors. We also rely on the
many volunteers who donate their time, ideas and energy to help keep our
organization strong.

Families Program, FEMA and community donations.
