Maternal, Child & Adolescent Health (MCAH)
Our Mission
The Mono County Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health (MCAH) program works to make sure:
- Every baby is born healthy, and every mom is healthy before and after birth.
- All families have the same chance to be healthy — no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they have.
- Women, kids, and families live in safe, healthy places.
- Everyone can get the care they need, when they need it.
The California Title V Program is administered by the Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health (MCAH) Division of the California Department of Public Health. Learn more about this program here.
