Services
The Rockaway Township Department of Community Services was formed in 2011 to bring together the wide variety of community-oriented programs under one roof. The Department administers the following services:

• Division of Health, which oversees a broad scope of clinical, environmental, administrative, educational and welfare services, as well as animal control services and information.
• Parks and Recreation, which supports many athletic and recreational programs for the Township's youths and adults, and maintains parks throughout the community for public enjoyment.
• Open Space and Historic Preservation, which procures and sustains thousands of acres of open public space and parkland, and preserves historic treasures within the Township.
• Senior Services, which assures a comprehensive variety of programs for the Township's elderly residents, as well as assistance to Rockaway's three senior citizen clubs. A Dial-a-Ride transportation service is also available to senior and disabled residents.
