flag North Carolina will take over Davidson County’s child welfare services Jan. 16, 2026, over ongoing safety failures after a child’s death.

flag The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services will temporarily take over Davidson County’s child welfare services starting January 16, 2026, due to unresolved safety concerns following a child’s death in 2024. flag Despite a corrective action plan since July 2024 and state support since November 2025, officials cited insufficient progress in addressing systemic issues like case management and staffing. flag The move aims to ensure children’s safety and improve service delivery, marking the sixth time NCDHHS has assumed control of a county’s social services.
