The Mississippi Department of Human Services is hosting a series of virtual Town Hall Meetings that will allow Mississippians the opportunity to interact with leadership throughout the agency. The meetings will be hosted primarily on Facebook Live.
The first meeting was Jan. 21 and included an introduction to the series, an overview of 2020 and a look at where the agency hopes to go in 2021.
Subsequent meetings will be held each Thursday at different times to broaden the opportunity for interested parties to participate. Anyone who is not able to attend the session live can view the meeting on the MDHS YouTube page or on Facebook.
These divisions will be highlighted on the corresponding dates:
Jan. 28 – Community Services
Feb. 4 – Child Support Enforcement
Feb. 11 – Economic Assistance Eligibility
Feb. 18 – Aging and Adult Services
Feb. 25 – Early Childhood Care and Development
March 4 – Youth Services
March 11 – Workforce Development and Partnership Management
“Our mission and our calling are to provide tangible help to all Mississippians, young and old, who need our assistance,” said MDHS Executive Director Robert G. “Bob” Anderson. “As we continue to work to create a new MDHS committed to this purpose, it’s important that we hear from Mississippians what we are doing well, and in what areas we can improve.”
