Welcome:
OPC Area Program
Area Program is the local governmental agency with responsibility for oversight and management of publicly-funded mental health, developmental disability, and substance abuse services in Orange, Person and Chatham counties. OPC provides screening, triage and referral for individuals needing services in the area; recruits and monitors an array of community service providers; and manages the distribution of state monies for services to consumers.
OPC is governed by an Area Board. The Area Board is comprised of one county commissioner from each of the three counties OPC serves. The commissioners appoint the remaining board members. These remaining board members are citizens, which must include representatives of various constituent and professional groups specified by statutes governing OPC. As the governing body, the Board exercises the powers and duties conferred by the General Assembly.
The Area Board meets at our Administrative Offices in Chapel Hill on the second Monday of each month from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.; the meeting is open to the public.
Our Mission:
Our mission is to work in conjunction with consumers, their families, and our providers so that consumers can lead satisfying lives as integral, valued, and contributing members of the community.
