In 2024, the City of Lacey (City) will have a new, competitive Human Services Grant Program that allocates up to $300,000 to support human services in the community.

The Workgroup’s primary duties and responsibilities include:
- Review 2024 Human Services Grant Program applications.
- Make recommendations to the City Council for 2024 funding allocations.
- Advise on a human-services needs assessment.
- Make a recommendation on long-term funding priorities.
- Make a recommendation on a human services advisory board.
- Meet at least once per month, or as needed, throughout 2024.
The Workgroup will consist of:
- Five members who reside within Lacey.
- Up to two members who reside in the Lacey Urban Growth Area.
- Of the seven members, two may have experience within human services. (Residency requirement may be waived).
Once appointed, members will be eligible to opt-in for a stipend of $50 per regular meeting, up to a maximum of $500 in a year.
The application period is open now through Friday, April 12.
