County Calendar:

The week kicks off with the County Board of Health meeting which oversees the Champaign-
Urbana Public Health District. From the agenda and their meeting information page you can see that it's been a while since their last meeting so there are quite a number of reports to be submitted.

On Thursday there are the Mental Health and Developmental Disability boards. If you're interested in finding out more about county Mental Health and Developmental Disability programs and agencies they can be a bit wonky. They are, however, very interesting if you want to see all of the gears moving to provide care to so many in our community. If you're interested in what an MHB or DDB meeting is like, here are a couple write up examples: Mental Health Board 2018, Developmental Disabilities Board 10/25/2017.
The 2018 schedule is up and UPDATED (this month's county board meeting is on the March 27th, not the 22nd as originally posted) on the Calendar page and the County page. The regular County Board meetings are back to Thursdays until next holiday season.

If you're curious about learning more about how your county government works, it's easy enough to live stream a meeting or go in person: Attend a Meeting.
