Meet the Community Engagement Team
The Community Engagement Team connects with human services providers throughout the State with the goal of building relationships, sharing information, and improving access to DES Programs and Services. Community Engagement Liaisons are committed to engaging partners with respect, compassion, and transparency to cultivate communication and strengthen internal and external relationships that will promote and improve the quality of human services. This is achieved through improving awareness of Services Provided by DES, ensuring these services are accessible and efficient, increasing the public’s trust, and establishing partnerships with community organizations statewide.
