Commissioner Kimberley Causey-Gomez advises the public that the V.I. Department of Human Services (DHS) continues to serve its constituents throughout the territory; however, due to a COVID exposure, the SNAP Issuance Office located at Mars Hill on St. Croix will be closed beginning today and will reopen on Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2022.
