Have you helped a Member-in-Transition (MIT) or do you know a FCCMA member who has helped a MIT?
FCCMA established a policy in 1993 to help full members in the Association who have separated from their local government. FCCMA members are encouraged to hire MITs for special projects and/or interim positions whenever possible.
In 2003, the Florida City and County Management Foundation adopted criteria for a lifesaver award to thank the membership for its support in hiring MITs. The Foundation was dissolved in 2007 and the Association assumed the policy.
To qualify for a lifesaver award the FCCMA member must employ a MIT either on a part-time or full-time basis for up to 90 days. If you have employed a MIT or know a member who has employed a MIT, please email Carol Russell at crussell@flcities.com.
