St. Louis County Library will introduce social workers at five branches to help people access vital services like mental health, housing and other social service programs.

“It’s hard to come in to seek assistance and be told, well, you have to go ask someone else,” said Kristen Sorth, the director and CEO of SLCL.

Now they’ll have social workers to help answer those questions at Florissant Valley, Lewis and Clark, Natural Bridge, Rock Road and Weber branches.
