We need to hear from you!

The mission of the El Paso County Department of Human Services is to strengthen families, to assure safety, to promote self-sufficiency, and to improve the quality of life in our community. The Quality Assurance Program helps ensure quality services for all persons who come in contact with El Paso County Department of Human Services. It is our commitment to continually improve those services.

The customers of our services provide the best guidance in determining how to better serve them. To do this we need to hear how we can be most responsive to your needs, what we are doing well and what needs to be improved. Our intent is to provide consumer-oriented program development, customer service and the promotion of excellence in all aspects of service as a public service agency. The Quality Assurance Program was developed to monitor our actions and ensure excellence in customer service.

Communication

We have forms available in DHS lobbies and online for your comments.

When completed and signed, the Employee Conduct Grievance Form may be submitted in QA drop boxes in the main DHS lobby on the first floor of the Citizens Service Center or submitted via email to QA@elpasoco.com. However, should you wish to talk with someone rather than use the Customer Communication form or if you have a concern that you have not been able to resolve through administrative or managerial procedures, you may contact:
