West County Services Center

The West County Services Center offers limited appointments with staff for the Department of Health Services, the Human Services Department, and District 5 Supervisor  Lynda Hopkins.

Residents can also access the community clothing closet and a small emergency food pantry to help meet immediate needs while waiting to receive EBT cards. We are continuing to work toward bringing even more direct services to West County to make it easier for working families, seniors, and caregivers to access support.
