DYFS Adds Second Local Office in Morris County
In response to increases in child abuse and neglect referrals, as well as the desire to use resources and serve families more efficiently, Morris County's Division of Youth and Family Services opened a second local office on June 12, 2007. In addition, the Morris/Sussex Area Office has moved to a new location. See details below. For all reports of child abuse and neglect, please do NOT call the local offices, but rather use the statewide hotline at 877-NJ-ABUSE (877-652-2873).
