For more than 100 years, HDS has been our region’s sole non-profit provider of programs and services to meet those challenges. We strive to ensure that the programs and services we offer meet the evolving needs of our clients. We retire programs when they no longer meet the need, and conduct regular community, industry, and self-assessments to remain at the forefront of trends, technology, and opportunities that can help us better service our constituents.

Leadership

The vision of HDS staff is to be caring professionals serving people with excellence, dignity, and trust.
