Hood River County is in the midst of considering whether to move its Prevention Department and Veterans Services Officer into a Department of Health and Human Services.  County Administrator Allison Williams says former City Manager Rachael Fuller has been brought in as interim Prevention Department director with the retirement of Belinda Ballah at the end of September, and Fuller will be evaluating whether creating the larger health department makes sense fiscally and operationally.  Williams points out one of the issues is the ability to hire employees.  Williams says the health and prevention departments already work on similar topics in tandem, and the County needs to be able to have a sustainable structure moving forward.
