Overview

The Department of Health and Human Services manages the delivery of health- and human-related services for all North Carolinians, especially our most vulnerable citizens – children, elderly, disabled and low-income families. The Department works closely with health care professionals, community leaders and advocacy groups; local, state and federal entities; and many other stakeholders to make this happen.

The Department is divided into 33 divisions and offices. NCDHHS divisions and offices fall under six broad service areas - Health, Opportunity and Well-Being, Medicaid, Operational Excellence, Policy and Communications and Health Equity.

NCDHHS also oversees 14 facilities: developmental centers, neuro-medical treatment centers, psychiatric hospitals, alcohol and drug abuse treatment centers, and two residential programs for children.

Learn more about the Department in the 2021-2023 Strategic Plan.
