About the Council
The St. Johns County Health and Human Services Advisory Council was established by Resolution of the St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) in 1995. The BCC determined that while County government historically provides health and human services, government cannot and should not attempt to solve all health, mental health, substance abuse and social problems. But government can provide a way to address these problems and seek solutions and remedies in a coordinated and efficient manner. In keeping with this focus, the HHSAC was established to exist and serve as an advisory body to the BCC on such matters.
On behalf of the BCC, members of the HHSAC review funding applications from local independent agencies that provide services to the residents of St. Johns County. The HHSAC then provides its funding recommendations to the BCC for approval. Agencies approved for funding are provided contracts and monthly invoices are submitted to the County by agencies for reimbursement for the services provided.
The HHSAC meets on call as needed during the application review period and usually in the 3rd Thursday of each month at 4:30 p.m. in Conference Room A of the SJC Health and Human Services Center, 1955 US 1 South, St. Augustine. The Executive Committee usually meets on the first Thursday of each month at 2:30 p.m. in the Social Services Conference Room of the SJC Health and Human Services Center. (Meeting Schedule)
