The Governor makes appointments to over 250 Boards and Commissions representing a broad range of areas and issues for the State of Oregon. This also includes most major state agencies and departments headed by policy-making boards which are appointed by the Governor. Members of Oregon State Boards and Commissions are vital participants in statewide decision-making and dedicated individuals have the opportunity to participate in developing a wide variety of important governmental policies. Major issues range from consumer protection, economic development, education, conservation, and health care — all of which are critical to the ongoing success of the State of Oregon. The Governor is also committed to ensuring that all Boards and Commissions represent the growing age, racial and gender diversity of the state. This is an amazing opportunity to pool our collective viewpoints, visions, and hopes for Oregon — and all community members are welcome and encouraged to serve. Please note that each board or commission has unique membership requirements. See the Board Book, available from the State of Oregon Boards and Commissions Website, or visit the relevant board’s webpage for more information. All applicants are subject to a criminal history and revenue check. Additional vetting may apply for some board positions. Notifying us about something in your past does not necessarily mean that you can’t or won’t be appointed, but it is important that you disclose this information in the beginning of the process to minimize delays. The State of Oregon requires Board and Commission member applicants to supply their social security number for the purpose of background checks, and for those members appointed, to be put in the state's HR/Payroll system.
