Who We Serve
One third of the overall clients we serve are children under the age of 18 and 100% of those we serve live at or below 200% of the poverty level.
Seton Center’s service area for Social Services encompasses the lowest income zip codes in the Kansas City area: 64126, 64127 and 64128, as well as portions of 64109, 64129, and 64130. Social Services are provided for eligible individuals and families at no charge. To ensure that resources are directed where they are most needed, individuals must provide documentation including identification, proof of residence, and income.
Dental patients come from a 10-county area in Missouri and Kansas. Costs for dental services are assessed on a sliding scale, based on income and number of dependents.
