ORANGE COUNTY – Orange County citizens can have a positive impact on the future of the county by volunteering to serve on a variety of advisory boards and commission.  The volunteers are appointed by the County Board of Commissioners and have an opportunity to influence the way of life in Orange County.

Currently, there is an opening on the Orange County Board of Health for an At-Large board member and a dentist.
