What services are still at DHS?
DHS will remain committed to the core programs and services provided to some of the most vulnerable residents in New Jersey. DHS will be a more streamlined organization, allowing it to provide more focused attention on its services for people with developmental disabilities and mental illness; people with physical disabilities; those who are blind, visually impaired, deaf or hard of hearing; people in need of addiction services; and people in need of affordable health care and other welfare services, such as food stamps, emergency assistance and unemployment support.
