The OC Health Care Agency helps keep our community healthy and safe. We watch for diseases, offer vaccines, check that food and water are safe, and share information people need to stay well. Our programs support families, children, and older adults across the county. We offer help for people dealing with mental health or substance use challenges, and make sure people in our jails and youth facilities get basic health care.
