The application period to find a practicing dentist for the Public Health Advisory Council has been extended to Dec. 15.
The Clark County Board of Health is seeking a dentist to join the all-volunteer council for a three-year term. The term will begin as soon as the position is filled and ends Sept. 30, 2026.
The council reviews public health needs and makes periodic recommendations to the Board of Health to enhance community health and well-being. The council may provide community forums or establish community task forces, as assigned by the board, and make recommendations for the annual budget and fees.
Over the course of their terms, members can expect to support Clark County Community Health Improvement Plan priorities, a public health legislative agenda, and more.
