2019 legislation moved the delivery of North Dakota’s child and family services from 53 counties to 19 multi-county human service zones. The zones were created to improve the delivery of social services to residents by reducing duplication of efforts, lowering administrative costs, and making service provision consistent across the state.
Today, the zones provide economic assistance, child and family services, aging services, and more. Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch works with every human service zone in the state to ensure North Dakota children receive the help they need.
