The Harris Center’s nine-member volunteer Board of Trustees is appointed by the Harris County Commissioners. The Sheriff of Harris County also participates as is outlined in legislation. The trustees have various professional backgrounds, bringing expertise in the areas of criminal justice, health care, business, research, management and rehabilitation services. The Board volunteers their time and skills by participating in regular and ad hoc meetings, training sessions and Harris Center events. We are grateful for their service.
