Introducing the Somerset Helps Mobile Outreach Van!

 The Somerset County Department of Human Services has officially launched its Somerset County Helps Mobile Outreach Initiative. The van is commonly referred to as the Somerset Helps Van.

What is the Somerset Helps Van?

The Somerset Helps Van is designed as a mobile resource fair that collaborates with nonprofit, faith-based, and governmental human-serving agencies to provide services directly to the communities most in need of support. Somerset Helps staff will also provide information and referrals to a wide range of human services and resources available throughout the County. Additionally, emergency food support, basic toiletries, opioid harm reduction materials, and educational resources for children will be available at all Somerset Helps outreach events.

This program is operated in collaboration with the Somerset County Department of Human Services, the Sheriff's Department, and non-profit partner agencies. It is funded by the Somerset County Board of County Commissioners through the Department of Human Services and the Opioid Settlement Fund. The van is staffed by a plain-clothed Sheriff's officer and bilingual personnel from the Department of Human Services.
