History
The Operations Division was created in 1981 assuming the program delivery functions previously performed in the Adult Services Division and the Children's Services Division. It was known very briefly as the Children's and Adults' Operations Division, but within a year of its creation became known simply as the Operations Division.
The Division was headed by an Assistant Deputy Minister, and reported to the Deputy Minister of the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services.
In 1994 this division was replaced by the Program Management Division.
