Saratoga County DSS COVID-19 Message

In accordance with CDC and Department of Health recommendations, we continue to adhere to social distancing and public health protocols to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus. 

All essential DSS services are still available for your assistance.  Please call DSS prior to coming to the Social Services Building.  Saratoga County Department of Social Services is serving individuals in need primarily by telephone.  In-person appointments will be provided for services that require in-person contact.  If you are advised by a DSS employee to come to the building, we ask that you come alone and not bring others with you.

You will be screened outside the building by a staff member.  The screening will include health screening questions, in order to conduct business with staff at our office building.
