Current Hennepin County Advisory Board Openings

The members of these boards help make a difference by advising commissioners on issues, programs and policies. Participating is a great way to make sure that citizens’ perspectives and expertise are represented in the ongoing work to fulfill the county’s mission.

All interested citizens are welcome to apply for membership on a board. Current board vacancies are listed below; click on the links for duties, meeting schedules and other information for each board. Note that legitimate expenses related to serving on an advisory board (which may include child care, travel and parking) are reimbursable.
