Pike County DHR Searching For New Director

There’s a major shakeup of leadership at Pike County’s Department of Human Resources.Â
Â
Barry Spear with the Department of Human Resources confirms with Alabama News Network that Florence Mitchell is no longer the director of the Pike County DHR office.Â
Â
She’s served as director for more than a decade.Â
Â
According to a memo sent out by the state, Stephanie McKnight’s been assigned as interim director. She’s currently the director of Henry County’s DHR.Â
Â
The state is not releasing the reason for the change up, but Spear did say Mitchell is still employed through state DHR.Â
Â
McKnight will remain as interim until a new director is appointed by the Pike County DHR board. Â
