CBAC Application
Thank you for completing this Community Budget Advisory Committee (CBAC) application. Multnomah County recruits for CBAC three cycles a year. Not all CBAC accept new members in every cycle. Your application will be considered for up to three CBACs, which you will select in your application. If none of the CBACs you select are recruiting this cycle, or your application isn't selected for one of your choices, your application will be held in a "pool" for the next cycle. You can learn more about each departmental CBAC on their webpage.
If you have questions about the application, selection process, or would like to connect with staff in the Office of Community Involvement, feel free to call us at 503-988-3450 or send an email to community.involvement@multco.us.
Multnomah County is committed to early, inclusive, and equitable community outreach and engagement in order to build advisory committees that represent a broad cross-section of community perspectives and experiences.
To support this commitment, CBAC actively seeks: 1) a geographically broad representation of county residents, 2) participation of individuals from diverse income levels, racial, ethnic, gender, ability, and age groups, 3) individuals who live or work in the county, 4) individuals or representatives of groups most impacted by departmental budgets, and 5) individuals or representatives of groups with expertise in county services.
Before you apply, please know that you will be expected to participate in the New Member Orientation and Onboarding as well as review, understand, and agree to Oregon, county, and CBAC laws, policies, and practices viewable here.
