Douglas County Human Services moves Castle Rock office to Englewood
Douglas County is moving its Castle Rock Human Services office to Englewood, shifting SNAP and Medicaid help to 11045 E. Lansing Circle on Aug. 24.
Douglas County Human Services employees based in Castle Rock will move to 11045 E. Lansing Circle in Englewood beginning Monday, Aug. 24, shifting where residents go for help with SNAP, Medicaid, Child Care Assistance, Child Support Services, Child Welfare and Adult Protective Services.
The county said all services and employees previously located in Castle Rock will be on the first floor at the Englewood site, and that the move will not disrupt service. Human Services is currently listed at 4400 Castleton Court in Castle Rock, where office hours run Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The county also said some work, including applying for benefits, providing documentation or asking about benefits, can be handled through other county contact channels.
For Douglas County residents who have relied on the Castle Rock office for in-person help, the move shifts that access point to Meridian, near Centennial Airport. That change matters because county human services departments are the local doorway to programs such as food assistance, heating assistance and child welfare, services that often depend on face-to-face follow-up and document review.
The Highlands Ranch Senior Center office will not be affected. Douglas County’s move also fits a broader consolidation at 11045 E. Lansing Circle, an 82,000-square-foot building in the Meridian International Business Center. The Douglas County Health Department already moved there on July 7, 2025, and the county previously tied the site to a long-term, full-building lease that was reported at about $35 million, with a 15-year term, purchase options and space for more than 175 employees.
As Human Services joins that hub, the county is concentrating more in-person operations in Englewood while leaving the Castle Rock listing in place only until the transfer takes effect. For residents who need to reach a caseworker, submit paperwork or sort out a benefits issue in person, the trip will now point north, not downtown Castle Rock.
