New Dropbox Available at Department of Family Services

DFS Dropbox

Liberty, NY – Since it can often be hard to get to the Sullivan County Department of Family Services’ (DFS’) offices during normal business hours, DFS has installed an outdoor dropbox at the Travis Building, 16 Community Lane, Liberty.

“Anyone can use it to drop off applications and documentation after hours (from 5 p.m.-8 a.m.) Monday-Friday and on weekends and holidays,” explains Social Services Commissioner John Liddle. “However, it is not for cash, checks, or money orders, as we don’t want it to become a target of theft.”

During regular business hours, DFS maintains a dropbox inside the Travis Building for the convenience of those who don’t need to visit an office.

“Our team at Family Services is always looking for ways to better serve the people who need us, and even ‘little things’ like this dropbox can have a major positive impact,” says District 2 Legislator Nadia Rajsz, chair of the Legislature’s Health & Family Services Committee. “I applaud and support their ongoing attempts to make it easier for folks to get the benefits and assistance they deserve.”
