Outreach event by the Department of Disability and Aging Services (DAS).

The Department of Disability and Aging Services (DAS) supports the well-being, safety and independence of adults with disabilities, older people, and veterans. Our values include: Compassion, Accountability, Inclusion, Equity and Innovation. DAS serves close to 70,000 clients through its department programs and partnerships with community-based organizations, addressing a wide range of services for people living independently to those in need of full-time support.

The DAS Benefits and Resource HUB provides both in-person (Walk-In Center at 2 Gough) and phone assistance (hotline at 415-355-6700). It provides a ‘one stop shop’ model with social workers available for comprehensive whole person assessments, where individuals can learn about resources available to them and to get connected to services. In addition, we complete referrals for Home Delivered Meals, In-Home Support Services, Case Management, Community Living Fund and Adult Protective Services.
