NCDHHS Celebrates Employees at Virtual Team Recognition Awards Event

Employees from across NCDHHS were honored with the annual NCDHHS Team Recognition Awards in a virtual event on March 25. The awards recognized NCDHHS teams who have gone above and beyond to further our mission and demonstrated the Department's seven values during 2020. Secretary Mandy Cohen thanked staff for doing this in the face of tremendous challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. “I am really excited for the opportunity to recognize the incredible teams across the department who have demonstrated and lived our values, and have done it incredibly well in the face of incredible challenges over the last year,” she said.
