What clayton county board of health does

The Clayton County Health District (operating as Clayton County Board of Health / CCHD) is a county-level government public health agency serving Clayton County, Georgia, part of the statewide network of 159 County Boards of Health operating under the Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH). Founded circa 1919 (vital records are maintained from that year), the agency provides comprehensive public health services to county residents through three clinical divisions — Adult Health, Child Health, and Community Health — supplemented by Environmental Health Services and the WIC supplemental nutrition program. The District Health Director, Dr. Mario Majette, leads operations under the oversight of the Clayton County Board of Health, chaired by Dr. Alieka Anderson-Henry.

Service delivery is organized across three physical sites at the consolidated headquarters at 1117 Battle Creek Rd, Jonesboro, GA: a Main Facility, a WIC Clinic, and a Specialty Services Clinic. Core offerings include immunizations, family planning, STD/STI testing and treatment, breast and cervical cancer prevention, HIV prevention, tuberculosis prevention, WIC nutrition supplementation, pediatric dental care, children's special needs programs (Children 1st, Early Hearing Detection and Intervention, Babies Can't Wait, Children's Medical Services), vital records issuance (birth/death certificates, THC cards), environmental health inspections (food service, body art, pools, wastewater, wells), and emergency preparedness/epidemiology. Active programs as of 2025 include a measles response, opioid prevention, and COVID-19 residual operations following the June 2024 closure of community drive-through testing sites.

The agency is funded through county appropriations, Georgia DPH pass-through funding, and federal grants (CDC, FDA coordination, USDA WIC), with limited fee-for-service revenue from vital records and environmental permits. It operates strategic partnerships with Clayton County Government, Clayton County Public Schools, Clayton Center (behavioral health), Morehouse School of Medicine, CDC, FDA, and the Governor's office. In November 2023, the district completed a major facility renovation and grand reopening, consolidating all departments back to a single upgraded site after a phased relocation that began August 2023.
