▼ Expand▲ Collapse🗙 Dismiss

 

Due to high levels of community transmission of COVID-19, the County of Shasta is currently limiting in-person services. 

Many services are readily available on the County website.  Please click on the appropriate department from the menu below to check if you can conduct your business online.

If you need to visit a County office, please call ahead to see if an appointment is needed or if other modifications are in place.

ShastaReady.org is Shasta County's response to local emergencies. Find information about wildfires, public safety power shutoffs, COVID-19, and more.
