Good first step: Act Harris County Precinct 1 Staff Directory
Visit the Precinct 1 website and find the team that handles your issue — then email them directly using the contact listed in the directory. https://cp1.harriscountytx.gov
Harris County Precinct 1, led by Commissioner Rodney Ellis, has a full team of staff ready to help you. This directory introduces each team, explains what they do, and gives you direct contact emails so you can reach the right people fast.
Precinct 1 is organized into nine teams. Executive Leadership coordinates everything and works directly with Commissioner Ellis. The Engagement Team manages the Commissioner's schedule and keeps communication flowing with county departments. Budget and Finance watches over the office's money and pays vendors. Communications writes and sends out all public information, including this website. Community Affairs and Advocacy puts staff in your neighborhood — they organize meetings, partner with groups like the Houston Food Bank, and knock on doors to share resources. Development and Infrastructure cares for roads, bridges, and parks across the precinct, including storm response. Policy develops ideas presented at Commissioners Court to improve fairness and quality of life in Harris County. Programs creates activities for residents of all ages, from kids' environmental science to seniors' drama. Shared Services keeps the office's buildings, technology, and vehicles running smoothly.
Use this directory like a contact sheet. Read each team's description to figure out which one fits your need. Then email the director listed for that team. For something urgent or unclear, start with the Engagement Team — they connect residents with the right people inside the office.

The Community Affairs and Advocacy Team works with local organizations like the Houston Food Bank to bring resources to residents. The Policy Team brings proposals to Commissioners Court, which is the governing body for Harris County. All teams coordinate through Executive Leadership, which reports to Commissioner Rodney Ellis.
Knowing who does what inside a commissioner's office saves you time. Instead of guessing who to call, you can go straight to the team that handles your concern — whether that's a pothole on your street, a community event in your neighborhood, or a question about county programs.
