Our Mission

We deliver health, social, and mental health services to the Sacramento community.
We direct resources toward creative strategies and programs which prevent problems, improve well-being, and increase access to services for individuals and families.
To further our mission, we seek close working relationships among staff, with other government offices, and within the community.

To pursue this mission, we will strive:

To understand that the Department of Health Services exists to serve the people of Sacramento County.
To develop and maintain programs which reflect community diversity and are the most responsive and cost effective.
To value County staff by treating them with dignity, respect, and fairness and by promoting their safety and welfare.
To appreciate the multicultural and experiential diversity of employees and the community as a whole.
To enable employees to perform to their fullest potential by providing the necessary resources to accomplish objectives.
To create a service environment which removes obstacles, promotes innovation, and maximizes productivity.
To build a cohesive team committed to integrity, honesty, creativity, humor, competence, accountability, and communication.
To plan for inevitable change.
