About CCS

Combined Community Services provides many programs and services for Kosciusko County. Our largest program is our Emergency Assistance program, which offers long term solutions as well as immediate financial help. It's our goal to meet the spiritual needs of the people we meet with and to offer more than just a quick solution to the immediate problem. Our appointment system allows us time to discuss topics that led to the immediate crisis, from employment issues, budgeting, support systems, to referrals for assistance with education, childcare, and medical needs.

History and Philosphy

Combined Community Services was founded by the Greater Warsaw Ministerial Association to stop duplication of services provided to those in need in Kosciusko County. Through support of the local churches and the United Way of Kosciusko County, CCS became a central agency for Kosciusko County residents to come to when they were in need. Since our beginning in July 1984, Combined Community Services has become "the place for people in need" to come for assistance. From food, clothing, diapers, baby formula, or personal/hygiene products to financial assistance with utilities, CCS meets a variety of needs. CCS began to develop other programs to enable low-income households with the "tools" needed to become financially independent.
