Information

Referral History:

The Advisory Council for Equal Employment Opportunity (ACEEO) was established in July 1991 to serve as an advisory committee to the Board of Supervisors regarding the implementation of the County's Affirmative Action Plan, to review the Affirmative Action Program, and to recommend actions to facilitate the attainment of the County's goal for affirmative action. The Council is composed of 13 members and a Board committee reviews nominations to all seats except those designated for County managers and labor unions.

Referral Update:

The ACEEO has expressed concerns about their roles pertaining to the committee, which includes the following:

They are requesting that the meetings will still be available by Zoom in addition to the in-person component. They expressed that this will serve as an accommodation for those who have mobility and/or transportation issues.
The ACEEO expressed more involvement in the interviewing of potential candidates. They would like to play a more active role in the interviewing and selection of new members.
The ACEEO participated in the Host Table presentation and they are excited for the Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice to begin its work. They realize that there is a lot of work to be done due to the history of racial discrimination not only in the County but nationwide.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
