Commissioners are drawn from diverse racial, ethnic, religious, age, sexual orientation, and socio-economic backgrounds. More information and links to applications are available here.

The MCSW welcomes all interested and qualified applicants. To be considered for the Hampden and Hampshire-Franklin inaugural commissions, please submit your application by Tuesday, March 7, 2017.
