If you are interested in getting involved with your community and want to have a voice in the programs and services that Montgomery County offers, apply to join one of the more than 90 Boards, Committees and Commissions (BCC). These groups generally advise the County Executive and the County Council, and we want input from all parts of the community.
We hope you will learn more about what a particular group does and apply for this volunteer position. BCC members typically serve a three-year term.
Currently, we are recruiting members for the Citizens Review Panel for Children. The Panel, in collaboration with Child Welfare Services, which is part of the County’s Department of Health and Human Services, has worked on several activities, including assisting with the recruitment and retention of foster parents, reviewing policies related to working with older youth in foster care, researching and outlining activities to support staff regarding secondary trauma and analyzing various State policies regarding the daily best practices within Child Welfare Services. If you are looking for a meaningful experience that impacts the community’s most vulnerable children, apply at https://cexbcc.montgomerycountymd.gov/board/4058. The deadline to apply is June 11.
