The Committee considered bylaw changes pertaining to attendance and recruitment/selection, and a proposed code system of seat names that do not distinguish consumers and family members of consumers from other Commission seats.

For example, each District is assigned three seats, one designated for consumer of mental health services, one designated for a family member of a consumer, and one designated as a member at large: District #, Seat 1 = Consumer Member
District #, Seat 2 = Family Member District #1, Seat 3 = At Large Member The Local Appointment List and recruitment materials would need to identify what each code seat name represents; however, for all other purposes, the generic seat name will suffice. |
