Text SizeNew Fiscal Year Brings Reorganization
Starting July 1, the state's human services organizations are being reorganized.
Recent legislation signed by Governor Perdue divides the Department of Human Resources into three separate agencies:
- DHR is now the Department of Human Services and will continue to oversee Family and Children Services, Child Support Services and Aging Services.
- The previous Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Addictive Diseases is now the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities.
- The Division of Public Health is now part of the Department of Community Health, which also includes PeachCare and Medicaid services.
