BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Previous Commission action/date: January 7, 2020 - original Agreement approved
Background: The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) provides training and experience for older workers. SCSEP pays wages and places qualified seniors in positions with government or non-profit agencies.
The Alabama Department of Senior Services/Senior Community Service Employment Program Host Agency Agreement will provide two Information Attendant (IA) positions to the Baldwin County Commission. The IAs will play a key role as ambassadors and disseminators of information for Baldwin County.
One IA will be based in the lobby of the Fairhope Satellite Courthouse and one IA will be based in the lobby of Central Annex. Primarily the IA serves to welcome, greet, direct, and attend to visitors’ basic inquiries related to the location and hours of offices in Baldwin County and provide information to the public about services.
SARPC asks host agencies to contribute $1,150.00 per Senior Aide per contract year to be used as a match for this Department of Labor grant through the SCSEP program. SARPC will send an invoice.
The current Agreement will terminate on June 30, 2021.
