Answer 1: Associates degrees come in three flavors: An Associate of Arts (AA), and an Associate of Science (AS), and an Associate of Applied Science (AAS). Stay away from the AAS degrees, though, because they typically contain much less "Lower Division General Education" (LDGE) than AA or AS degrees, and so are usually not as easily transferred into four-year bachelors degree programs. Always stick with the AA or AS degree!
In any case, a "Human Services" degree might be considered an "arts" degree at one school, but a "sciences" degree at another; so there's no predicting whether the "Human Services" degree would be an AA or AS... it would just depend on the school.
However, "Human Services" is quite often abbreviated as the obvious "HS." And so the likely abbreviations would be...
Associate of Arts in Human Services (AAHS)
...or...
Associate of Science in Human Services (ASHS)
...or at least something like that. But, seriously, it really does depend on how any given school does things. It's very difficult to declare, for certain, what the abbreviation would be for all schools. You would just have to contact the school, or look on its website, or in its catalog to see how it abbreviates an associates degree in human services.
