About Our Department

The Board of Supervisors is the governing body of the County of Los Angeles, a charter county. As such, it has the outstanding function of serving as the executive and legislative head of the largest and most sophisticated county government in the entire United States. A civil service staff which performs the duties for the County departments and agencies serves the needs of the County's population of more than 10 million people.

Los Angeles County is governed by a five-member elected Board of Supervisors who serve as the legislative, executive and administrative government body, responsible for setting policies, enacting ordinances and accepting resolutions. Through an annual budget, the Board apportions and levies taxes to ensure sound fiscal management practices, and to secure the health, safety and welfare of its citizens. Supervisors advocate for and represent the public in intergovernmental affairs, develop change, and champion positive community relations.

The Board of Supervisors works with multiple priority issues affecting society's most vulnerable, and addresses our County's largest challenges such as homelessness and poverty, mental health, child welfare, public safety and transportation.
