The Rappahannock County Department of Social Services seeks an energetic and versatile team player, committed to working towards the best outcomes possible for youth and families to join our agency in a Family Services Specialist position.
Relocation assistance is available for new hires needing to relocate to within 60 travel minutes of the agency.

Rappahannock County is a rural county in the northern region of Virginia with a population of approximately 7,400.

Work-Life harmony is an agency core value.
