Community Advisory Council

Help Make Healthcare Better

The Community Advisory Council (CAC) shares input with the Trillium Board of Directors. The CAC gives useful feedback on how to make healthcare better.

  • Trillium has two Community Advisory Councils: South Region (Lane, Linn, and Douglas Counties) and North Region (Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington Counties).
  • CAC members talk about the health needs of the local community. They explore ideas for how to meet these needs.
  • Oregon Health Plan (OHP) members, parents, or grandparents of OHP members serve on the CAC. Local community members also serve on the CAC.
  • Two members from each CAC serve as representatives on the Trillium Board of Directors.
  • Trillium members who join the CAC will receive a stipend for attending virtual and in-person meetings. For in-person meetings, meals are provided. You can also get help with transportation and childcare costs.
