Our Culture

Our passionate workforce of approximately 1,000 employees pushes the boundaries of what innovation looks like by providing services focused on health promotion, illness prevention and protection of the environment.

We recognize that each employee brings their own unique capabilities, experiences, and characteristics to their work.  Our diversity encompasses differences in ethnicity, national origin, gender, language, age, sexual orientation, religion, abilities, experience, socioeconomic status, and education.  

We are committed to cultivating an inclusive culture that values diversity of thought and collaboration, enabling each employee to perform at their maximum potential and to more effectively work with clients, patients and employees.

We support and require that patient care, client care, and overall customer service be provided in a culturally competent and ethnically sensitive manner.

  • Healthy Choices. Healthier People. Healthiest Communities.

    Our mission, promoting the health and well-being of all who live, work, and play in Lake County, drives what we do. As the largest human service provider in Lake County, we believe that services must be available without barriers. No residents are turned away due to an inability to pay. We also believe in providing services in an environment of mutual respect, free of discrimination or bias.

  • Diversity is who we are and what we do.

    The Lake County Health Department and Community Health Center is proud to employ a diverse workforce of dedicated individuals. 80% of our employees are female, and 50% are racial minorities. We are a multi-generational workforce, with employees from 19 to 79 years old, and experience from 0 to 43 years.

The Lake County Health Department and Community Health Center is an equal-opportunity employer. We evaluate qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, national origin, disability, veteran status, and other protected characteristics.
