SEQUIM — The Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe is seeking a Sequim resident to serve on the Jamestown Healing Clinic Community Advisory Committee.
The board oversees the programs offered at the tribe’s medication-assisted treatment (MAT) facility, which is expected to open in March.
The committee is charged with developing a monitoring and evaluation program for the clinic, and developing a contingency plan that “fully identifies potential courses of action and any corrective actions to be taken when monitoring or evaluation indicates expectations and standards at the Clinic are not being met with respect to how clinic operations impact the city’s public services beyond the impacts caused by other outpatient clinics in the city,” according to tribe representatives.
The committee meets from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. the first Friday of every month.
The Community Advisory Committee will make a selection from applications at its Feb. 4 meeting.
Applicants must be 18 years old or older, live within Sequim city limits and be “objective, fair-minded (and) analytical,” tribe representatives said this week.
Apply online at jamestownhealingclinic.org/community-advisory-committee, or write to: Brent Simcosky, Health Services Director, Jamestown Family Health Clinic, 808 N. Fifth Ave., Sequim, WA 98382.
Committee members include the health director of Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe; Sequim city manager; Sequim community development director; Sequim police chief; Clallam County sheriff; Fire District 3 chief; a Jamestown S’Klallam tribal council member; a Sequim City Council member; a member of the health field, and a Sequim resident.
