Make an impact by serving as a CHSP Citizen Review Team (CRT) volunteer!
This year, FY 2022/2023, marks the 25th year the City of Tallahassee and Leon County will partner to form the Community Human Service Partnership (CHSP), a citizen-driven funding distribution process. During the last funding cycle, over $8 million was allocated through the CHSP process to support the delivery of local human services. We are inviting you to participate in the CHSP process by serving in the important role as a Citizen Review Team (CRT) volunteer. The CRT’s decisions regarding the distribution of human services funding will impact the lives of thousands of our citizens, including children, persons with disabilities, seniors, persons living in poverty, and victims of domestic violence. To participate as a CRT member, you must have no conflict of interest with any agency applicant and attend one of the mandatory workshops. Please register by March 25. All workshops will be held virtually.
