Darious Baylock, an adoptions caseworker in our Family Division, embodies the values of Genesee County by providing excellent customer service to our residents every day.

From a colleague:

“Darious consistently goes above and beyond without ever seeking the spotlight. His professionalism stands out, and although training others isn’t part of his official role, he takes the time to guide and support his teammates with patience and expertise. His depth of knowledge and quiet leadership make a lasting impact, even if he prefers to work behind the scenes.

He also works closely with pre-adoptive families, helping to make the experience as smooth and calm as possible during what can be an emotional and high-stress time. His steady presence and compassionate approach help ease anxieties and build trust when families need it most. Your efforts don’t go unnoticed, and your contributions are truly appreciated.

Thank you for all that you do!”
