Participants will help design and strategize community education activities, review draft materials, recommend outreach and promotion approaches, share about engagement and Public Comment opportunities with other stakeholders in their Supervisorial District, and support implementation of district-specific presentations.

Virtual meetings are anticipated to begin January 2026 and continue through April/May 2026, leading up to the presentation of the proposed final plan to the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. Final Subcommittee Member selection will be made in collaboration with the BHAB Executive Committee to ensure balanced representation, alignment with the subcommittee’s goals, and fit for the subcommittee’s limited duration.
