Welcome to the Tulare County Health & Human Services Agency. Since 1995, our organization, commonly referred to as HHSA, has been an integrated agency, providing a broad range of social and human services. Our programs include traditional categories of County service delivery, such as public health, welfare, environmental health, child protective services, and mental health. Programs for veterans, those on conservatorship, and for the aging population also fall under our umbrella. We are dedicated to protecting and strengthening the well-being of the community. Working with our community partners is important to our mission and allows for the provision of timely and accurate information which informs, educates, and protects the public. The Health & Human Services Agency (HHSA) is comprised of four branches: Fiscal Operations, Health, Mental Health, and Human Services. The main functions of the HHSA are to protect and enhance individual and public health; to provide a safety net of services and supports for the underserved; to provide protective services and support for the young and the elderly; and to maintain a competent, culturally respectful workforce to develop and deliver programs and services.
