County Commissioners Favor One Head For Welfare Work
Lorain County officials Oscar Dunn Alan Branson and Thomas McGeachie urge consolidating Child Welfare Board duties with the Lorain County Welfare Department claiming a central office would improve accountability.

Welfare board urged to save costs through consolidation
Lorain County officials debate a proposed consolidation of welfare services amid rising costs and missing data.
