Overview
Mono County's IHSS program is administered by Social Services, with provider registry functions handled by Eastern Sierra IHSS — a regional registry operated by the nonprofit Community Service Solutions that also serves neighboring Alpine and Inyo counties.
Because of Mono County's remote geography along the eastern Sierra Nevada, the registry's physical office is actually located just across the state line in Minden, Nevada — the nearest practical population center for this stretch of the county.

Local Notes & Quirks
- Registry office is physically in Nevada: genuinely distinctive among California counties — Mono's Eastern Sierra IHSS registry office sits in Minden, NV, just over the state line, since that's the nearest practical hub for this remote stretch of the county.
- Shared regional registry: Eastern Sierra IHSS, run by Community Service Solutions, coordinates provider registry services across Alpine, Inyo, and Mono counties jointly.
- Vast, mountainous geography: Mono County spans from Bridgeport to Mammoth Lakes along the Eastern Sierra — expect significant travel distances and winter weather to affect service availability at times.
Appealing a Notice of Action in Mono County
If Mono County reduces, denies, or terminates your IHSS hours, the appeal process is governed by state regulation — the same 90-day deadline applies regardless of county:
- You have 90 days from the date on your Notice of Action to request a State Hearing
- Call the State Hearings Division at 1-800-952-5253 to request a hearing
- Or mail a written request to: California Department of Social Services, State Hearings Division, P.O. Box 944243, Sacramento, CA 94244
- Requesting your hearing before the Notice of Action's effective date preserves Aid Paid Pending — meaning you keep your current hours while the appeal is decided
