(Revised Witness List)On Thursday, May 28, 2015, the Little Hoover Commission will conduct a public hearing on Californians’ interactions with state government. The hearing will begin at 9:30 a.m. in Room 437 of the State Capitol in Sacramento.
The Commission is reviewing the nature and quality of interactions between California state government and the public. At this hearing, the Commission will explore creative efforts to improve government services at the federal level and within California state departments and agencies.
The Commission will first hear about 18F, the federal government’s new digital services delivery agency inside the General Services Administration. Its deputy executive director will describe the agency’s approach to solving problems at the federal level and share lessons that might help California replicate some of the program’s success. The Commission will then hear from the undersecretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency, who will explain why the agency created its open data portal and discuss how it expects the portal will contribute to Californians’ improved health and well-being. Representatives from three California state departments will describe how they are delivering services and discuss plans for improvement. The chief of the facilities management division at the California Department of Parks and Recreation will discuss the visitor experience at state parks. The associate director of female offender programs and services at the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will discuss the visitation processes at California correctional facilities. Finally, the deputy director of the Center for Health Statistics and Informatics at the California Department of Public Health will discuss the process to obtain vital records.
There will be an opportunity for public comment at the end of the hearing. The Commission also encourages written comments. Immediately following the hearing, the Commission will hold a business meeting in the legislative counsel conference room on the lower level of 925 L Street in Sacramento.
