The Virginia Department of Social Services responds to the needs of seniors
age 60 and over, adults with disabilities over the age of 18 and other adults
with specific needs.
VDSS also collaborates with the local departments of social services across
the state and other local service providers to offer assistance to elderly citizens
in need of protection from abuse; elder adults who require the services of adult
care residences; and adults with disabilities who need help with care, transportation
and nutrition services.
VDSS also helps adults involved in domestic violence situations; adults in
need of financial assistance, energy assistance and food stamps benefits; and
citizens who believe they have been discriminated against by a social services
agency.
