ARCHDALE – Randolph County’s new satellite location for the Department of Social Services and Public Health opened in late July in Archdale.
This facility, which is located at 215 Balfour Dr., is intended to serve the northwestern part of the county.
“Randolph County Commissioners are delighted to have this location as it is easily accessible, and with the growing needs in our county with the expansion of Medicaid, it comes at a good time for the community,” said Darrell Frye, chairman of the Randolph County commissioners.
Frye lives in Archdale.
Mayors Lewis Dorsett of Archdale and Richard McNabb of Trinity and North Carolina Sen. Amy Galey were among the attendees at a ribbon cutting and grand opening, while other government leaders also sent representatives.
