Social Services

The Department of Social Services is a confidential resource center open to Exeter residents who meet specific criteria and guidelines. In conjunction with federal, state and local agencies, we work to connect eligible families and individuals with food, housing, and heating assistance.  Holiday programs are also available.  Please call the office to schedule an appointment.

Donations

The department graciously accepts food and monetary donations on a continuing basis from individuals, schools, businesses and organizations.  Fuel assistance, gift cards, and Holiday Giving Tree items are also greatly appreciated.  All donations can be dropped off at the Department of Social Services at the Exeter Town Hall or mailed to: Town of Exeter, Department of Social Services Ten Rod Rd, Exeter RI 02822. All donations directly benefit the residents of Exeter. Thank You for supporting your neighbors in need!
