At the Nov. 17 meeting the Clark County Board of Commissioners read a proclamation recognizing the county health department as the 2025 Dr. Sarah Taylor Morrow Health Department of the Year, an award from the North Carolina Public Health Association. The proclamation cited the department’s leadership, innovation and initiatives including a post-overdose response team launched in August 2023 to support overdose survivors.
