What Is a “Human Services Organization”?

Question by rock4u007z: What is a “Human Services Organization”?
Someone on Yahoo Answers says that they work here on weekends where they offer different services (?) as an extra income. The person didn’t offer a reply email so I’m asking this way.

Best answer:

Answer by AngeloElectro
A human services organization offers “people services” to a specific group of people in need. Their focus is usually to improve the mental, physical, emotional, or financial health and well being of their clients. A human services organization can have other purposes as well. Most of the time, they are non-profit, or contracting with the local, state, or federal government to provide community services.

The Department of Children and Families
The Kidney Foundation
Hospice Care
Department of Aging and the Elderly
Victim Aid, Abuse Programs
Counseling programs
Bridge to Independent Living
Food for the Hungry
Habitat for Humanity
Catholic Charities
These are all examples of Human Services Organizations

If I Saw a Shrink, Would It Reflect Badly on Me With Social Services in My Role as Guardian of My Siblings?

Question by Gráinne: If I saw a shrink, would it reflect badly on me with social services in my role as guardian of my siblings?
When my parents died in an accident last year, at the age of 18 I dropped out of college to step up to the plate and become the guardian of my little brother (who is 14) and my sisters, who are (7 and 12). The alternative was they’d be put into care, which to me just wasn’t an option.

Financially, we have enough to survive without much difficulty. The insurance paid off the house, Dad’s work pension pays towards my younger siblings upkeep, I work part time, I’m a little ashamed to admit it, but we also get a state “supplementary welfare” payment. Birthday & Christmas presents are smaller than they used to be, and we won’t be going abroad anymore, but we don’t have to worry about paying the phone bill or where the next meal will come from.
