Quick answer: what Dallas County Health and Human Services handles
Dallas County Health and Human Services is the county public health and human services department serving Dallas County, Texas. The main office is at 2377 N. Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75207. The main switchboard number is 214-819-2000. DCHHS provides public health services, clinical services, communicable disease work, immunizations, TB services, sexual health services, public health laboratory support, environmental health services, emergency preparedness, housing and social support programs, and health-related community services.
The most searched user tasks are child immunizations, adult and foreign travel vaccines, COVID vaccine questions, STI and HIV testing, TB appointments, WIC help, energy assistance, housing support, public health disease reporting, environmental health permits, mobile food unit inspections, foodborne illness complaints, animal bite or rabies-related routing, and birth or death certificates.
The biggest Dallas mistake is routing everything through the same office. DCHHS does not replace the County Clerk for certificates, the City of Dallas WIC call center for WIC, Texas DSHS for statewide vital-record corrections, or emergency services for urgent medical care.

If you are calling about a food establishment, mobile food unit, public health complaint or animal-control issue, give the exact location. If you are calling about a certificate, say whether the birth or death happened in Dallas County, inside City of Dallas limits, or elsewhere in Texas.
Dallas County Health and Human Services main office, map and visit tips
The main Dallas County Health and Human Services office is at 2377 N. Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75207. The main switchboard is 214-819-2000. Many DCHHS services are located at or connected to the Stemmons Freeway campus, but not every program is in the same suite, not every service is walk-in, and some services use branch clinics or partner offices.
Before you visit Stemmons Freeway
- Call first if your service is appointment-only, such as TB clinic or some clinical visits.
- Bring a legible hard copy of shot records for child immunizations.
- Bring travel itinerary and vaccine history for travel vaccine questions.
- Bring referral forms or positive test documentation for TB clinic when required.
- For mobile food units, bring all checklist items to the scheduled inspection appointment.
When not to drive first
- Do not drive to DCHHS for a birth or death certificate before checking Dallas County Clerk or City of Dallas Vital Statistics rules.
- Do not assume WIC is handled directly by the DCHHS clinic desk; Dallas WIC routes through the City of Dallas WIC program.
- Do not visit the Sexual Health Clinic without calling same day first.
- Do not use routine office contact routes for emergencies.
Dallas birth certificates, death certificates and marriage records
Dallas County vital records can be confusing because the correct office depends on the record type, event location, event date and what kind of copy you need. The Dallas County Clerk Vital Records Division is located at 500 Elm Street, Suite 2100, Dallas, TX 75202. The phone number is 214-653-7099, fax is 214-653-7176, and public hours are 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday, except approved holidays.
The County Clerk issues birth certificates, death certificates and marriage record services under county vital-record rules. City of Dallas Vital Statistics may also be relevant for certain births and deaths that occurred within incorporated City of Dallas limits. Texas DSHS Vital Statistics in Austin is the statewide route for many corrections, delayed records and statewide issues.
| Record task | Best route | Important user warning |
|---|---|---|
| Dallas County birth certificate | Dallas County Clerk Vital Records, 214-653-7099 | Birth certificate search and/or certified copy fee is listed as $23. The search fee is non-refundable if the record is not found. |
| Dallas County death certificate | Dallas County Clerk Vital Records, 214-653-7099 | Death certificate search and/or first certified copy fee is listed as $21, and additional death certificates are listed as $4 each when applicable. |
| Marriage license search or certified copy | Dallas County Clerk Vital Records | Marriage license search and/or certified copy fee is listed as $10. |
| City of Dallas birth or death record | City of Dallas Vital Statistics | City of Dallas Vital Statistics has its own rules for long-form city birth certificates and city death certificates. Verify whether the event occurred within incorporated City of Dallas limits. |
| Texas statewide correction or change | Texas DSHS Vital Statistics | Dallas County Clerk FAQ directs changes or corrections to Texas DSHS Vital Statistics in Austin. |
| Mail order through County Clerk | Dallas County Clerk mail instructions | Mail requests require completed application, proof of identification form signed before a notary, copy of acceptable ID, and payment. Do not send cash through the mail. |
Birth certificate checklist
- Confirm where the birth happened. Dallas County, City of Dallas and Texas DSHS routing can differ.
- Confirm whether you need long form or abstract. Passport, dual citizenship and driver-license situations may require a long form birth certificate.
- Prepare acceptable ID. In-person orders require original acceptable ID. Mail orders require identity documentation and notary steps.
- Use the current fee. Dallas County Clerk lists birth certificate search and/or certified copy as $23.
- Avoid random third-party sites. Use the Dallas County Clerk portal, City of Dallas, Texas DSHS or official VitalChek links from official pages.
Death certificate checklist
- Confirm the death location. If the death occurred inside City of Dallas limits, City Vital Statistics may be relevant. If it is a Dallas County record outside the city route, use the County Clerk.
- Confirm that you are a qualifying applicant. Dallas County Clerk FAQ says death certificate requestors must be qualified applicants.
- Bring or submit proper ID. Missing identification delays or blocks the request.
- Order enough copies at one time. Banks, insurance, estates, vehicles and property matters may each require certified copies.
- Use current fee rules. Dallas County Clerk lists death certificate as $21 for the first copy and $4 for additional death certificates.
The Dallas County Health Department name is often used in searches, but birth certificates, death certificates and marriage records are not handled by a routine DCHHS clinic desk. Use the Dallas County Clerk, City of Dallas Vital Statistics or Texas DSHS depending on the record and event location.
Child, adult, foreign travel and COVID immunizations
DCHHS offers immunizations through central and branch clinic locations. The official immunization clinic page says Dallas County Health and Human Services offers vaccinations to children 18 years of age or younger who are eligible for the Texas Vaccines for Children program.

The DCHHS Environmental Health Division protects Dallas County residents from disease associated with food, animals, vectors, water and hazardous waste. The Environmental Health phone number listed in the contact directory is 214-819-2115.

Food or environmental complaint checklist
- Write the exact location. Include business name, street address, city and ZIP code.

- List affected people. For foodborne illness, list everyone who ate the same food and who became sick.
- Use the correct jurisdiction. Some city issues may be handled by a city code or health office, while DCHHS handles county Environmental Health functions.
DCHHS Environmental Health began permitting mobile food units by appointment only. A mobile food unit permit issued by Dallas County is for health and safety inspection only. Complete the required packet and checklist before calling 214-819-2115 to schedule an appointment.
Human services, energy assistance, housing and older adult programs
DCHHS also includes human services, not only clinical public health. The department lists programs such as the Comprehensive Energy Assistance Program, weatherization assistance, welfare support, housing choice voucher services, home loan counseling, older adult services and other resource connections.

What Dallas County Health and Human Services does not handle
A good health-department guide should prevent wrong visits. These are the most common Dallas routing mistakes.
| If you need | Do not use | Better route |
|---|---|---|
| Emergency medical care | Routine DCHHS phone directory | Call 911 or go to emergency care. |
| Birth, death or marriage record | Immunization clinic, Sexual Health Clinic, WIC or Environmental Health | Use Dallas County Clerk, City of Dallas Vital Statistics or Texas DSHS depending on event location and record type. |
| City of Dallas WIC | DCHHS clinic appointment line as the WIC call center | Call City of Dallas WIC at 214-670-7200 or text 1-855-957-5424. |
| Private doctor or hospital medical records | County vital records or DCHHS main desk | Contact the provider, hospital, clinic, pharmacy or records custodian that created the record. |

| Divorce decree | DCHHS or County Clerk birth/death certificate page | Use the court or district clerk route where the divorce was filed. |

Dallas County service area and nearby confusion
This guide is for Dallas County, Texas. It may be relevant for users in Dallas, Garland, Irving, Grand Prairie, Richardson, Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Mesquite, Balch Springs, DeSoto, Duncanville, Cedar Hill, Lancaster, Seagoville, Coppell, Rowlett, Sachse, University Park, Highland Park and other Dallas County communities. Always use the exact location of the record, clinic service, restaurant, food truck, home, business or public-health issue to choose the right office.
Boundary rule
Use the event or service location. A birth or death certificate depends on where the event occurred and which registrar holds the record. A restaurant complaint depends on where the food business is located. A food truck or mobile food unit permit depends on the operating jurisdiction. WIC depends on clinic network and eligibility. If you are near a county or city boundary, call first.
