The Community Support Specialist (CSS) team was initially created to act as a liaison between DHHS and communities in navigating the rollout of Economic Assistance platforms (ACCESSNebraska and iServe) and programs such as SNAP (formerly known as Food Stamps), TANF, Child Care, etc. The team also assists families by sharing resources to meet their needs through economic assistance or preventative services.
The CSS team provides support and resources to community agencies and statewide partners. They serve as a single point of contact for community agencies with questions regarding DHHS programs and policies. The team can provide training to community agency staff which allows them to better advocate for Nebraska families.
The CSS team can attend community events to help directly provide DHHS Economic Assistance program information. If you have any events that you would like DHHS to be represented at, please reach out to your local CSS.
When families have access to what they need and supports in place, they are more likely to remain self-sufficient, thrive in their communities, and provide safety and well-being for their children.
