COVID-19 RESPONSE

In response to the current State of Emergency in effect throughout the Commonwealth, our offices at One Mercantile Street, Suite 520 are closed to the public. Staff is working remotely and meetings are being held virtually and additional information can be found on the CMRPC calendar below. CMRPC stands ready to assist your community and the region during this time. This is a challenging, unprecedented situation for all of us, but we can make it easier by supporting each other, sharing resources, and continuing to collaborate.

CMRPC is dedicated to supporting all local partners and addressing their needs as our present or developing resources allow. CMRPC is distributing funds from the MA Department of Public Health to 39 unaffiliated municipal Boards of Health throughout Central Massachusetts. We are also facilitating communication regarding shared regional services and equipment with Boards of Health.

CMRPC is actively working with community partners and chambers of commerce to identify the needs of businesses and non-profits. The Southern Worcester County Economic Development Organization and CMRPC will be submitting a regional application to the US Economic Development Administration (EDA) funding for projects that spur economic growth in Central Massachusetts.
