Welcome to the Community Opportunities Portal. Here you'll find ways to get involved in this collaborative initiative to improve our community!
The purpose of the Community Integration Initiative (CII) is to reimagine a new human services system in collaboration with those who use county services and those who deliver them, building on the work DHS and community providers already do to combat poverty and inequities.
The catalyst of this multi-year initiative led by the county and DHS is the RASE Commission Report. TogetherNow will assist with facilitation.

Brainstorming Sessions
We'll be offering virtual brainstorming sessions in January to review the data we collected over 2022 through interviewing and surveying DHS staff, providers, and community members on their experiences receiving/delivering services, barriers being experienced, and ideas/opportunities for the future.
These sessions will be facilitated, interactive zoom sessions. If you're interested in participating, you can sign up for any of the sessions below. Please keep in mind you only need to sign up for one session!
Provider Focus Groups
The CII team offered provider focus groups through September and October. These 1-2 hour sessions were meant to hear feedback from providers on their experiences working with DHS, delivering services in this community, and ideas for changes that could be made to improve service delivery.
