Legislative & Intergovernmental Relations



Legislative relations

Our relationships with Oregon's legislative assembly is very important. In an effort to be responsive to requests for information and to forward legislation, each Division has assinged a Legislative Coordinator. Legislative Coordinators work closely with the DHS Legislative Director who coordinates the overall department Legislative agenda.

We established a Local Government Advisory Committee to advise us and help us develop an integrated community-based service delivery system.

Tribal relations

We are committed to a positive working relationship with the nine tribes in Oregon. Through regular meetings with tribal governments and the work of the DHS tribal liaison, we are continually striving to ensure that Indian communities receive sufficient and appropriate human services.
