Redmond, WA – The City of Redmond has
an opening on the Human Services Commission for anyone who lives or works
within Redmond city limits or lives in unincorporated King County on a property
with a Redmond postal address. The City is looking for a candidate interested
in a broad spectrum of human service issues including basic services, health
care, counseling, domestic violence and family support.
The Commission’s role is
to advise the Mayor and Council on general human services issues and to make
specific funding recommendations as part of the City’s budget process every two
years. Desirable qualities of a commissioner include a strong interest in
the issues, a willingness to learn and a passion for working to strengthen the
City’s effectiveness in addressing these issues. Please note that individuals
who work for or serve on the board of directors of a human service agency
delivering services to city residents are not eligible for consideration.
The seven-member
Commission currently meets the second Monday of each month from 6:30 p.m. -
8:30 p.m. in the Council Conference Room at Redmond City Hall. All commission
members are volunteers. To learn more about the commission or to apply, please

are encouraged to apply by June 15, 2018.
