Overview
About S.C. Department of Public Health
As of July 1, 2024, the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) has been split into two new agencies.
This is the South Carolina Department of Public Health (DPH), the former health component of DHEC.
Our name may change, but our commitment to protecting, promoting and improving the health and well-being of everyone in South Carolina is stronger than ever.
DPH will build on DHEC’s legacy, continuously innovating to achieve best practices that help improve our state’s overall health with the goal of becoming the healthiest state in our nation.
Our goal for this new agency is to instill a people-first approach to all that we do. This includes working with our partners, communities, and others to help every South Carolinian have the access, resources, and information they need to make decisions that enhance their health and have access to the highest quality, safe health care.
