REQUEST all County departments which staff boards, committees and commissions to see Delta 2000 as a resource for minority, women and East County residents who may be interested in serving on boards, committees and commissions . 8. REMOVE this item as a referral to our Committee. BACKGROUND: On May 11, 1993, the Board of Supervisors referred to our Committee a request from Delta 2000 that they be officially authorized to assist the Board of Supervisors in recruiting applicants for various boards, committees and commissions, with an emphasis on recruiting women, minorities and East County residents. On June 28, 1993, our Committee met with Ruth Goodin, Executive Director of Delta 2000 and Theresa Saunders, a member of Delta 2000 ' s Cultural Sensitivity Committee and a Vice Principal at Antioch High School. The Board of Supervisors has traditionally had difficulty getting a representative group of East County residents to be interested in serving on County advisory boards, committees and commissions . In addition, we have had difficulty recruiting women and minority candidates for many advisory boards, committees and commissions. Delta 2000 ' s Cultural Sensitivity Committee has initiated a Board and Commissions Recruiting Project for three purposes : A. To increase the awareness of East County residents about the opportunities available to serve on boards, committees and commissions appointed by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors . B. To increase the participation of minority and East County residents on Contra Costa County boards, committees and commissions . C. To provide orientation sessions for East County residents who are interested in applying for Contra Costa County boards, committees and commissions . We believe that Delta 2000 can serve a very real and important function by providing this additional recruitment resource for women, minorities and East County residents. We have, therefore, formulated the above recommendations, which we believe will assist Delta 2000, the Board of Supervisors and the participation of women, minorities and East County residents in the work of Contra Costa County. cc: County Administrator Staff to each Board Member Ruth Goodin, Executive Director Delta 2000 2400 Sycamore Drive, Suite 16 Antioch, CA 94509 Department Heads (Via CAO) -2-
