Gov. Ige made the new Department of Human Services (DHS) leadership team official on Sept. 9, 2016. The governor hosted a swearing in ceremony where Director Bhanot and Deputy Director Holthus could begin their tenure by taking their oaths of office.

DHS division, staff office and attached agency leadership came together to celebrate our new leaders. Director and Deputy Directors’ families also enjoyed the ceremony.
