The Mayor and Council are seeking volunteers to recommend changes to Rockville’s caregiver funding process. The Caregiver Funding Task Force will examine the city’s grant process, review processes used by other jurisdictions, identify best practices and recommend a comprehensive process for reviewing applications and proposing funding.
The nine-member task force, to be appointed by the Mayor and Council, will include representatives of specific stakeholder groups and two Rockville residents from the community at large. Meetings will be held monthly. The group is tasked with providing a report and presentation of their recommendations to the Mayor and Council within one year of the task force’s first meeting.
Rockville caregiver agencies provide a variety of services to those in need, including housing, health care, food, clothing and senior support services.
To apply to serve on the task force, complete the Expression of Interest Form at www.rockvillemd.gov/boardscommissions.
