Mission Statement

It is a fact that people, regardless of who they are, where they live, or their income, will encounter many problems throughout their lives. We at Social Services understand how discouraging and stressful times can be when a person is "backed up against the wall," facing a problem he/she knows little about.

The City of Commerce Social Services Division staff is trained to listen to your needs and refer you to local, state, and other agencies best qualified to assist you. Social Services staff may also communicate with these agencies on your behalf to explain special circumstances.

There are several programs, which are provided to Commerce residents at no cost.
