COVID-19 Notice:
Our office will be opening to the public beginning Tuesday, May 19th at 8 am. We ask anyone with possible COVID symptoms to not come into the office but to call instead. Our office number is 359-6500 and we are open from 8:00 am until 4:30 pm. We will be limiting the number of people in our lobby to allow for the CDC recommended six foot social distancing guideline. If an individual is to be seen in an interview room, they will be asked to complete a health screening first.
- Instead of coming into the office, items can still be dropped off in the dropbox in our parking lot. If possible, please place in an envelope with your name and who it should go to. The box will be checked multiple times throughout the day and will not impact your eligibility for benefits because you are not bringing into the building. If you need original documents returned, please note on the document and we will mail the original back to you.
- Documentation or verifications may also be provided by scanning, attaching to an email and sending to
- Financial Worker: financial.unit@co.brown.mn.us
- Child Support Worker: Childsupport@co.brown.mn.us
- All other documentation: FrontDesk1@co.brown.mn.
- Most services through our office will continue but whenever possible, phone contact or video conferencing will be done to limit face to face exposure
- Heartland Express is running fare-free until June 1st (unless extended). Please call their office at 359-2717 to schedule a ride.
