What is a county board of social services?
Each county has an appointed board that hires the department’s director, advises the director on policy, and assumes other responsibilities as required by law. In most counties, it is the county board of social services that fulfills this role. In Mecklenburg County, the board of county commissioners has assumed this role and in Wake County, the role has been assigned to a consolidated human services board.
