    Support for Caregivers

    Caregiving is one of the hardest jobs out there, and it often goes unrecognized. In this episode of Inside Your County Government, Doria Fleisher of the Media Services Division talks with Holly Conley, Long Term Care Supervisor with the Charles County Department of Community Services, about the support available to family caregivers and the seniors they care for. Holly explains who counts as a family caregiver (spouses, adult children, neighbors, church members, and anyone providing unpaid care). She covers how the National Family Caregiver Support Program helps the person giving care, and what respite care looks like, from in-home help to adult day programs. She also shares the signs of caregiver burnout, financial assistance options that may be more within reach than you think, and simple ways neighbors and community groups can help. Not sure where to start? Call the Maryland Access Point, the "no wrong door" line, at 301-934-0103 for assessments, information, and referrals.

    Sister Cities, Shared Opportunities

    What does it mean for Charles County to have a sister city in Africa? In this episode of Inside Your County Government, Doria Fleisher from Media Services sits down with Lucretia Freeman Buster, Chief of Business Services in the Department of Economic Development, to talk about the county’s partnership with Matola, Mozambique. Lucretia explains what a sister city relationship is and why the county wants it to be more than ceremonial. She covers why Matola was a natural fit, from its industrial base in manufacturing, logistics, and agriculture to its proximity to Maputo, much like Charles County’s proximity to Washington, D.C. She also talks about what each community stands to gain, including new markets for local businesses and teacher training and exchange opportunities.
