Multnomah County Animal Services Community Advisory Committee Seeks New Members

Multnomah County Animal Services is seeking community members who live or work in Multnomah County to serve as members on its new 9 to 12 member Animal Services Advisory Committee.

Multnomah County Animal Services (MCAS) is the county’s sole public animal shelter and control agency. The mission of MCAS is to protect the health, safety and welfare of people and pets throughout Multnomah County.

MCAS cares for the community’s lost, homeless, stray, injured, sick, neglected and abandoned animals. To learn more about our organization, check out our website: multcopets.org

Applicants will participate in a recruitment process led by the Multnomah County Animal Services Director. Selected members will serve a one year start-up term from September 1, 2024 - August 31, 2025 and may have the option to stay for a staggered term lasting either one or two more years. Stipend payments for meetings and/or eligible reimbursement of costs to participate are available.

Meetings will be held in a centrally located county facility that will be identified with the new committee members. While in person attendance is strongly encouraged, a hybrid option will be made available whenever possible.
