Welcome to the Kenosha County Department of Human Services

It is our pleasure to present to you the Kenosha County Department of Human Services website. Members of the department created this site with the intention of finding ways to better serve the residents of Kenosha County. Please take some time to go through the various pages and see the wide variety of services that we offer. I hope that we have achieved our goal of providing useful and worthwhile information to the public.

Enjoy your virtual visit!
