BACKGROUND:

Behavioral Health Administration is requesting the addition of a permanent Administrative Services Assistant II position to be a liaison for the Mental Health Commission. This position will have a high degree of responsibility and interaction with the Mental Health Commission, Board of Supervisors and County Administrator Office.

The incumbent would be expected to conduct background research and prepare reports for the Board of Supervisors and the Mental Health Commission, as well as use community and county resources for the development of programs for Behavioral Health Division’s systems of care. Health Services Department has determined the appropriate classification to perform these duties and responsibilities would be the classification of Administrative Services Assistant II.
