Alachua County is now accepting applications from individuals interested in serving on the Children's Trust of Alachua County for a four-year term. There are two appointments coming available. Applications must be received by Friday, November 18, 2022, to be considered at the December 13, 2022, County Commission meeting for possible recommendation to the Governor's Office.
The County Commission will consider all applications received and recommend at least three individuals for each vacancy. The Governor makes appointments to the Children's Trust Board from the list of applicants recommended by the County Commission.
A ten-member board governs the Children's Trust. The Trust is an Independent Special District with taxing authority empowered to provide preventive, developmental, and treatment services for our local children.
