Advisory Councils
LCOG Senior & Disability Services (S&DS) is the local agency responsible for planning and providing most publicly funded services for seniors and adults with physical disabilities. Our Advisory Councils advise the Lane Council of Governments Board of Directors and agency staff on services provided by S&DS and all other important matters affecting the administration of S&DS, except for matters of personnel administration, staff pay and benefits.
Both councils meet six (6) times per year, on the 3rd Friday of the months of January, March, May, July, September, and November.
The councils serve all of Lane County and are interested in securing representatives from all of Lane County, especially individuals from rural communities and members of underrepresented and marginalized communities.
Disability Services Advisory Council
The Disability Services Advisory Council, in addition to advising services, advocates for the general welfare of people with physical disabilities in Lane County. The council is composed of 9 to 15 members, and over half the members must be persons with disabilities.
Membership: New member recruitment for the council occurs annually, typically in late summer. People living with or having lived experiences of physical disabilities, professionals that work with people with physical disabilities, or advocates for disability related issues are invited to apply.

Membership: New member recruitment for the council occurs annually, typically in late spring or early summer. People who are age 60 and over, professionals of all ages that work with seniors, and advocates for seniors or aging related issues are invited to apply.
