[NFB-Oregon-Announce] Oregon Deaf and Hard of Hearing Advisory Committee Opening

[Carla McQuillan]

Please see the email I received from a friend on a state Consumer Committee.

Hi Carla,
 
The Oregon Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services Advisory Committee has open seats for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Oregonians this year. Could you help us find applicants for these seats? If you are Deaf, DeafBlind, Deaf-plus, or Hard of Hearing yourself and interested, we welcome your application!
 
This Advisory Committee advises Oregon Department of Human Services on ways to improve access for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Oregonians in its programs and services.
 
Please share this opportunity with people you know who may be interested in advocating for the needs of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Oregonians and are willing to commit to attending our (online) meetings as well as some time in between meetings. 
 
Our application form and more information about the Advisory Committee can be found at www.odhhs.com. Also, there is an ASL video with closed captions with information and guidance for applying, at https://youtu.be/XUtYBpBQqKo.
 
Thank you for helping us spread the word!
 
Best Regards,
 
Krista Gallagher                                  Barbara Robertson
