DCS’s programs address the very root causes of the challenges our clients face, empowering low income families and individuals to overcome obstacles to their well-being and self-sufficiency. DCS continues to focus on the challenges and inequities that impact communities of color, women and the youth of our communities. Using an anti-racist, gender, sexual orientation affirming lens, DCS has focused on ensuring clients have access to much needed benefits, counseling, education, housing placement and referrals to many qualified organizational partners. DCS has implemented youth programs based on youth development principles of education, empowerment and focusing on the assets of our youth instead of deficits. We are known for our expertise on HIV prevention at the community based level.

Current program services include access to quality health services, supportive housing, youth education, and the social support services critical to meeting basic needs while focusing on impacting poverty. DCS meets each client where they are in terms of individual skills, finances, health and needs; providing one-on-one transformative support to help them succeed.
