Welcome to the New York State Office of Children and Family Services! Our mission is that “We serve New York's public by promoting the safety, permanency and well-being of our children, families and communities. We will achieve results by setting and enforcing policies, building partnerships, and funding and providing quality services.”
Within our organization and through our mission, you will be able to achieve great accomplishments and know that, at the end of the day, you truly made a difference. I am happy you have chosen OCFS as your new employer.
Insert some general information about your division within our Agency – one paragraph. If you recently reorganized, you might mention that. You might mention special recognition recently received or special programs you are doing to support our mission or the Governor’s Agenda.
We believe that your career has no limits. We fully expect that you will make significant contributions to OCFS programs. Our primary focus is on customer service (both internal and external), excellence in program delivery, and innovative results. The work that we do on a daily basis reflects that focus.
My role as your supervisor is to ensure that you have the tools, skills, leadership, and motivation to reach your full potential in support of our mission.
Please report to <work location> on <date> at <start time>. If you have any questions and I cannot be reached at my phone number, you may call <alternative phone line> or email <email address>.
Thank you for choosing OCFS as your employer. We look forward to a long and mutually satisfying working relationship.
