Find county public health, social services and community resource contacts.

Start here

Health Department ↗

Use the county directory to locate public health clinics, WIC, environmental health, social services and assistance programs. Eligibility and appointment requirements come from the administering program. For an urgent medical emergency, call 911.

Make the first call useful

Have the address, the type of request and any existing reference number ready. Ask whether the office handles your location, what documents are needed, and where the current application or schedule is published. Avoid sending private documents until you have verified the receiving agency.
