Good Afternoon All:

Believe it or not, recruitment for RARE next year is beginning.  Titus and I wanted to share information with you regarding applying for another year with RARE, regardless of the situation (same participant, same community; different participant, same community; same participant, new community).

Hopefully the attached document will explain things.  The most important thing is that you communicate with RARE Central about your interest.  A few things to note:


*         The community match for the upcoming year has been increased to $23,500.

*         The monthly member stipend for the upcoming year has been increased to $1600 per month.

*         We have worked with The Ford Family Foundation to have a more coordinated process for communities that are applying to them for part of the community match.  You will find that information as a link next to our application on our website (http://rare.uoregon.edu/community).

Please let us know if you have any questions.

-Megan
