COUNTY OF GRANVILLE: DSS Butner-Creedmoor Office Open for Business

County of Granville issued the following announcement on Aug. 14.

 The opening of the new Butner-Creedmoor location for the Granville County Department of Social Services (DSS) was celebrated with a ribbon cutting and open house on Monday, August 15 celebrating the first day of business for the new DSS location in the Dutch Village Shopping Center at 2531 East Lyon Station Road, Creedmoor. 

The new DSS Butner-Creedmoor location will serve as a true satellite office for the Department of Social Services. Residents will be able to receive the complete suite of services currently offered at the Oxford Office (410 West Spring Street, Oxford) and the Child Support Office (122 Williamsboro Street, Oxford), including Social Work Services, Income Maintenance Services, and Child Support Services. Residents who live or work in southern Granville County will now have convenient access to this vital county service. 

“The opening of a Social Services office in southern Granville County aligns with Granville County’s strategic plan, which emphasizes the need to expand county services to reach residents currently underserved due to the challenges related to transportation, high gas prices, and geographic distance from Oxford,” said Social Services Director Adonica Hampton. “We are excited to be able to provide this imperative resource for residents of the greater Butner, Creedmoor, and Stem communities, plus any other county residents who may find it more convenient to visit this new office.” 

“I could not be happier see this new Butner-Creedmoor Office opened to the public,” said Social Services Board Chair, and District 3 County Commissioner, Sue Hinman. “We have heard from our residents for so many years that they need more convenient access to county services. Just like we have brought other county services, like libraries and senior centers to Berea, Butner, Creedmoor, Oak Hill, Stovall, and Wilton, we are now able to meet our residents where they are in one of the fastest growing parts of our county. Any time we can make our residents’ lives easier and provide better customer service, we want to be there.”
