County Elections seeking people to serve on the Disability Advisory Committee

Are you looking for a way to serve your community? San Juan County Elections is looking for persons with disabilities or providers of services to persons with disabilities to serve on the Disability Advisory Committee. Washington State Law requires every county to have a DAC. The committee must include persons with disabilities and may include any interested person. One purpose is to provide input to the county elections department regarding accommodations to ensure equal access to voters with disabilities. The objective is to ensure that all voters are able to vote independently and privately. San Juan County’s DAC has assisted in the past by testing access for wheelchairs and making recommendations for improvement. It has also tested the county’s Accessible Voting Unit (AVU) and reviewed the county’s accessibility plan. If you are interested, contact the San Juan County Elections office at (360) 378-3357 or elections@sanjuanco.com.
