The Union County Board of Chosen Freeholders recently designated Lorraine S. Seidel as the 2009 Springfield Municipal Alliance Volunteer of the Year.
Seidel represents the Springfield Chamber of Commerce on the township’s Municipal Alliance.
The Springfield Municipal Alliance is annually funded by a grant from the Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, through the Union County Department of Human Services, Division of Planning. The Alliance has scheduled meetings throughout the year, at the high school, to discuss programs within the township.
These funds are used throughout the year to encourage a positive approach to community wellness and substance abuse prevention. Among the programs and activities totally or partially funded by the Alliance are: Teen Activity Nights, Project Graduation, intergenerational activities, Red Ribbon Week activities, Peer Leadership and mediation training at both the middle school and Jonathan Dayton High School.
For information concerning the alliance, contact Maria Sista at 973-376-1925, ext. 5297.
