Government AdministrationIllinois, United States11-50 Employees

Based in Yorkville, Illinois, the Kendall County Health Department is a small government agency serving county residents with public health programs. It structures its work around four units—Community Action Services, Mental Health Services, Community Health Services, and Environmental Health Services—and coordinates cross-cutting functions such as emergency response, health education, and systems improvement across the organization.

The department's history traces to the mid-1960s, beginning with the first Nurse Report in 1965 and its formal establishment by a Board of Supervisors resolution in 1966. In 1972, voters approved a referendum that established the current Board of Health governance, and in 1996 the agency consolidated Community Action, the Health Department, and Human Services into a single health services organization. The department has pursued formal accreditation, achieving accreditation in 2007 and governance accreditation in 2010.
