Our Mission
We are Team Trustee, committed to the relief of all who have acute and chronic needs concerning the basic necessities of life. Our strategy of service is intake, discovery, investigation and determination. We are trained to deliver these services efficiently, speedily, and accurately with compassion and good stewardship of the taxpayer's funds.
We move to be ever relevant in the prosecution of our duties in the ever changing landscape in which we are called to serve. We do a large portion of this service through collaborative efforts with our community-service providers who are not-for-profit agencies who give service to the poor and needy and operate as our force multipliers of service.
We are the oldest form of local government still in existence today and operate under the oversight of local, state and federal government. The state of the township is strong, hardy and solid as we continue to be government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
Greetings to the Community Service Providers of Center Township.
We are currently preparing for operation on the other side of the Pandemic. With current programs and efforts taking place between government and private concerns, we are not yet sure of our position to continue financial support as in the past. Because of this, if you will be seeking funding from us for 2022, it is time to send in your requests for support. We have some different obligations this year, and also some constraints, so we will do our due diligence to continue our partnerships as we approach our upcoming budget.
Request forms can be found below.
Deadline is July 12, 2021
