Community Services Department

Its’ focus is on supporting and enhancing the lives of Bighorn residents through programs and resources. Under the advisement of the Community Services Board, the Community Services Coordinator works with organizations and individuals within our broad community to build capacity, foster connections and act as a facilitator for new projects and programs.
