Stafford County initiated a collaborative funding model plan for Planning District 16 localities to include Stafford, Spotsylvania, King George, and Caroline Counties and the City of Fredericksburg in response to the Stafford County Human Services Master Plan. The goal is to create a holistic, collaborative system of service delivery that will provide citizens with quality, cost effective, preventive services. Within the Fredericksburg region, there are various intergovernmental, not-for-profit, and faith-based organizations that provide much needed supportive services to our citizens. They often fill a service gap to some of our neediest citizens. As a region, our local governments provide financial support to these agencies. It is our vision that together we can make sound, fiscally responsible, and impactful decisions for our communities.
