The mission of Support Services is to serve and support our veterans, and the Public Services Branch. Support Services manages the fiscal processes for eight departments within the Public Services Branch, enhances interbranch collaboration efforts, and provides professional assistance to veterans and their families.

Core Services

Grants and Fiscal Services

Grants and Fiscal Services provides financial support through purchasing assistance, accounts payable, accounts receivable, collections, budget preparation and entry, general ledger maintenance, budget amendments, grant management, grant reporting, internal auditing, cash receipting, direct customer sales, and support for all financial reporting needs. Our Grants and Fiscal team is comprised of 11 team members. This team is responsible for supporting twelve department/divisions and coordinating their efforts with fiscal team members in Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources, and Fiscal team members in Libraries.

Veterans Services

The Veterans Services Division is creating a better future for veterans and their families by providing expert consultations and professional assistance. The division is responsible for personal interviews, phone interviews, and disability and pension claims which is estimated to result in about $400 million in compensation payments to Pasco County veterans and their families. This assistance also connects veterans and their families to an array of benefits, care, and support programs that address various needs throughout their lives; thus creating a lifetime partnership for veterans and their families with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

The goals and objectives of Support Services focus on maintaining a financially sustainable County and delivering services that exceed customer expectations. The performance indicator tables shown below use data from as recently as Fiscal Year 2023.
