To maximize the utilization of tax payer's dollars the Galveston County Social Services department no longer provides Financial Assistance and Guardianship services in-house. The County has partnered with Non-Profit Organizations to provide these services for us.
For information about the Financial Assistance provided please contact:
- Tashonda Edwards, Galveston County Social Services Liaison, at (409) 770-5585
Galveston County has contracted with Friends For Life to provide Guardianship services. Friends For Life serves multiple Texas counties as guardian when a Judge determines that an individual lacks capacity and there in no family member qualified and/or willing to serve.
For these services please contact Friends for Life at (254) 772-1255
If you
are calling about a referral please contact:
- Debbie Diaz, Galveston County Probate Court Investigator, at (409) 770-5188
For questions, concerns,
or complaints contact:
- Connie Nicholson, Director of Community
Services, at (409) 770-5545
