Join the IHSS Advisory Board
The IHSS Advisory Board is a state mandated group of volunteers appointed by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors to provide ongoing advice and recommendations about IHSS.
Currently there are two vacancies on the Advisory Board. If you are interested in learning more about it, and perhaps seeking appointment to join, contact the Public Authority at: (408) 350-3286.
