Biographical/Historical Note:     The Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services was created in 1969 (Ch. 69-106, Laws of Florida) by merging several state agencies into one Department.  It was responsible for providing health, social, economic, family, and rehabilitative services to citizens in need. It was reorganized in 1975 (Ch. 75-48, Laws), changing its divisions into program offices responsible for providing program planning, monitoring, evaluation, and technical assistance to the state's eleven districts.  The Department was renamed the Department of Children and Family Services (known as the Department  of Children and Families) effective January 1997 (Ch. 96-403, Laws), and its functions relating to public and environmental health matters and children's medical services were transferred to the new Department of Health.
