The State Community Health Services Advisory Committee (SCHSAC) advises, consults with, and makes recommendations to the Commissioner of Health on matters relating to the development, funding, and evaluation of community health services in Minnesota.
The advisory committee was reinstated in 1995 (see Laws of Minnesota 1995, chapter 246, section 2). The State Community Health Services Advisory Committee was reviewed by the Legislative Commission on Planning and Fiscal Policy (LCPFP) in 2013 as part of their biennial duty required by Minn. Stat. 3.885 Subd. 11. The LCPFP's 2013 Recommendations called for keeping the committee.
SCHSAC voting members represent each of the community health boards (CHBs) in the state. Each CHB selects one member and one alternate to represent its board within SCHSAC. In 2013, there were 50 Community Health Boards. Approximately two-thirds of the members are local elected officials and the others are local public health directors and community health services administrators.
