Ms. Stauffer has served on PEHAB since 2003. Her increasing work responsibilities at the Wellness Community have limited her time for additional activities. Per approval from the Board of Supervisors, PEHAB would like to declare vacant the East County At-Large #2 seat held by Ms. Stauffer so that we can begin recruitment to fill this seat. • Member Raul Rojas (Immigrant Community) 3200 California St., Berkeley, CA 94703 has resigned from PEHAB. Mr. Rojas has served on PEHAB since 2005. He has relocated to Palo Alto and accepted a new work position in that area (resignation notice given in phone conversation, January, 2008). He will not longer work or reside in Contra Costa County. Per approval from the Board of Supervisors, PEHAB would like to declare vacant the Immigrant Community seat held by Mr. Rojas so that we can begin recruitment for a new member to fill this seat. • Member Terry Surles (West County, At-Large #1), 1312-A Mallard Dr., Richmond CA 94801, has resigned from PEHAB. Mr. Surles has served on PEHAB since 2007. He has accepted a new position that will require extensive travel making it difficult for him to participate in PEHAB. Per approval from the Board of Supervisors, PEHAB would like to declare vacant the West County, At-Large #1 seat held by Mr. Surles so that we can begin recruitment for new member to fill this seat. • Member, Sharyn Reece Grayson (Consumer#1), 711 22nd St., Richmond, CA 94601, has resigned from PEHAB. Ms. Grayson has served on PEHAB since 2006. She is experiencing health problems that preclude her from additional activities. Per approval from the Board of Supervisors, PEHAB would like to declare vacant the Consumer#1 seal held by Ms. Grayson so that we can begin recruitment for a new member to fill this seat. FISCAL IMPACT: None BACKGROUND: The Public and Environmental Health Advisory Board (PEHAB) is a 19-member board appointed by the Board of Supervisors in 1986 to advise the Health Services Department on community needs. This community-oriented Board seeks diverse representation from throughout Contra Costa County, and includes community members in the following representative categories: seniors, children/schools, business/industry, environmental organizations, labor and consumers. We also have professionals representing local voluntary agencies, the medical provider community, and immigrant populations. These representatives provide broad community knowledge and a wealth of experience and expertise in the health field. SUBJECT: PEHAB Board Vacancies PEHAB's mission is to identify community health needs and to make recommendations to the Health Services Department on how to address these needs. In order to accomplish this, PEHAB strives to anticipate emerging public health issues and advocates for policies, services, and programs that will improve the community's health. PEHAB recruits new members by sending out press releases to local media and notices to community-based organizations, other coalitions and groups, and members of the Board of Supervisors. PEHAB members also recommend candidates. PEHAB is committed to diversity in its membership and residents of Contra Costa with a broad range of community and health backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Candidates are asked to submit a written application. A recruitment committee made up of current PEHAB members, with the PEHAB executive assistant, reviews the applications and interviews potential candidates. The recruitment committee makes recommendations to the PEHAB Steering Committee of the candidates whose background, experience and interest best match the vacant seats on the Board. Upon approval by the Steering Committee, these candidates are contacted and invited to attend a Board meeting. PEHAB members then vote to approve forwarding these candidate's names and information to the Board of Supervisors via the Internal Operations Committee for appointment to PEHAB.
