Board votes to bar AI use on Child Support client data pending county policy
Summary
The Iron County Human Services Board unanimously approved a motion to prohibit use of artificial intelligence for client information in DCF contracts until the county adopts a formal policy, citing data‑privacy and governance concerns.
The Iron County Human Services Board voted unanimously to prohibit Iron County Child Support and Human Services from using artificial intelligence for client information and data in Department of Children and Families (DCF) contracts until a countywide policy is in place. The motion was made by Kurt Wolff and seconded by Doug Swartz and passed AIF.
Board members framed the motion as a temporary restriction tied to the absence of a county-level policy governing AI use with sensitive client records. The motion does not specify enforcement mechanisms or a timeline for policy development; the board noted those details will be determined as the countywide policy is drafted. The action was recorded under the Child Support agenda items for March 16, 2026.
