NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Social Services Minister Myles Laroda says it often seems that whenever something goes wrong in the country, the first question Bahamians ask is, “What is Social Services doing?”

In response to this public expectation, Laroda says his ministry is working to ensure adequate staffing and resources while also creating an environment where productivity can flourish.

He emphasized the vital role the ministry plays, noting it is the one government department that touches every part of every island, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The minister commended all staff members who work tirelessly to meet the needs of the most vulnerable in society.

Laroda also announced that a new addition is on the way, in collaboration with the Royal Bahamas Police Force. However, he noted that the new facility may not necessarily be located at the recently renovated Baillou Hill Road headquarters.
