DHCS is California’s health care safety net, helping millions of low-income and disabled Californians each and every day.
The purpose of DHCS is to provide the most vulnerable residents access to affordable, integrated, high-quality health care.
DHCS is a dynamic Department with ambitious goals and talented, committed employees. We work hard every day to fulfill our vital responsibility to support the delivery of quality health care to Californians. DHCS is committed to addressing disparities within our organization and in our communities through efforts toward greater diversity, equity, and inclusion. This is accomplished, in part, by a commitment toward employing a diverse workforce which reflects the many communities we serve, and by promoting and enforcing equal employment opportunity.
