Alameda County Social Services Agency

Alameda County Social Services Agency Our mission is to promote the economic and social well being of individuals,families, neighborhoods and communities. A Safety Net. A Way Forward.

Alameda County has delivered social services since the 1930s, but 1975 marked a defining moment. With a unanimous vote, the Board of Supervisors created the Alameda County Social Services Agency (ACSSA), unifying essential programs under one organization and expanding our ability to serve, respond, and uplift our community. Today, we are proud to unveil our new brand identity and logo, a look that

reflects who we are and the core values that guide everything we do. Core Values: Dignity, Integrity, Compassion, Shared Purpose, and Accountability.

✅ Returned over $1 million through the Child Tax Credit / Additional Child Tax Credit
✅ Delivered over $980,000 through the Earned Income Tax Credit
✅ Provided over $20,000 in Education Tax Credits
✅ Partnered with the Independent Living Program to support foster youth through self-filing workshops and tax education

Thank you to everyone who helped make this season possible! ✨
