Oregon Consumer Advisory Council

About the Council

​Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 430.073 established the Oregon Consumer Advisory Council (OCAC). The council advises the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) Director on the provision of behavioral health services in Oregon. The council may review, evaluate and provide feedback on all site reviews related to mental health services provided by OHA.
