Sandoval County’s Community Services Department serves as the public health and social services arm of the County, and provides a wealth of invaluable services guided by our mission of improving quality of life by providing those we serve with access to health care and social services. Our Department’s workforce of nearly 100 employees and approximately 250 volunteers are proud to serve over 70% of the County’s residents on an annual basis, and we do this as among our greatest of honors.

The Sandoval County Community Services Division provides residents of Sandoval County with a number of programs and services, including Animal Care Services, Community Health Services (which includes the Health Care Assistance Program), Prevention and Intervention Services (which includes the Adult Misdemeanor Compliance Program, Behavioral Health Services and referrals, Juvenile Justice Services, and Permanent Supportive Housing Services), and Senior Services (which includes congregate and home delivered meals, center activities, transportation, in home services, case management, and the Senior Volunteer Program and more).
