Which Would You Choose?

Let's see how well you can apply what you've learned about HHS programs and services to this scenario. "My spouse died last year. I'm elderly and can't work because of arthritis. Can anyone help me?"

Which agency or agencies would care for this client?

You selected 4. Department of Family and Protective Services. That's incorrect.

Here's the correct answer. The DARS Division for Disability Determination Services (DDS) will determine if the arthritis is severe enough to be considered disabling. DADS will provide elder assistance as needed.
