Social Services
Mission Statement
The core beliefs of the Bladen County Department of Social Services
as excerpted from its mission statement are embodied in the following:
| 1. |
We believe that the family unit is the primary and preferred
resource for meeting the needs of children and adults. |
| 2. |
Emphasis is placed on maintaining children and disabled adults
in their own homes through the provision of needed services
to improve and strengthen family functioning. Out of home placement
services are available when the care and safety of children/disabled
adults can not be insured in their own home. |
| 3. |
Community based preventative services offer the necessary
support to families and disabled adults in their quest to remain
at home as long as possible. |
| 4. |
Bladen County citizens will be respected and supported in
their interactions with our agency. |
