CSC Social Services

Social Services staff are cross trained in all CSC programs and services and have expert knowledge in community resources and government benefits to address clients’ needs.

Our strength lies in offering in-language services to the underserved, elderly monolingual Asian community members, as well as low-income families and individuals, many of whom lack technological and digital literacy.
