Local Government Advisory Committee
The Local Government Advisory Committee (LGAC) for Health and Human Services was established in the early 1990s to advise the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS) and Oregon Health Authority (OHA) on department-wide policies and processes and to work with them to build integrated, community-based services.
Membership includes county commissioners and judges, the directors of DHS and OHA, at-large members, and representatives from the League of Oregon Cities, Conference of Local Health Officials, the Association of Oregon Community Mental Health Programs, the Oregon Juvenile Department Directors Association, Community Action Partnership of Oregon, the Oregon Association of Community Corrections Directors, Oregon Consumer Advisory Council, a local mental health advisory/alcohol and drug planning committee, and Coordinated Care Organizations.
