ADVISORY COMMITTEE
2001, the Board approved amendments
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
to the membership criteria.
As amended, the Advisory Committee consists of 11 members: 4 Consumers aged 60 or
older, 2 Consumers aged under 60, and one member from each Supervisorial District. Under
Board policy, the IOC would typically review only general membership or “At-Large”
seats, and would not review appointments to supervisorial district seats. However, when the
Advisory Committee was originally established, the Board of Supervisors directed that the
IOC review and coordinate supervisorial district appointments to ensure that none of the
following categories has more than one representative: senior advocate, advocate for
younger disabled, representative from the developmental disability community, IHSS
individual provider, IHSS family provider, social worker, nurse, community-based
organization, home health agency.
Terms of appointment are four years.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The seat will remain vacant.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
