The mission of the Income Support Division (ISD) is to relieve, minimize or eliminate poverty and to make available certain services for eligible low-income individuals and families through statewide programs of financial assistance, food assistance, employment assistance and training services.
The Human Services Department (HSD) also recognizes the importance of developing work readiness in the populations served through public assistance. To do this, HSD has developed programs geared towards the training and placement of individuals into career positions.
