Rehire Furloughed Employee Grant Program
The BOCC recently allocated $300,000 to the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce for a grant program for businesses that furloughed employees due to COVID-19 and have since rehired them.

The grant amount is $2,000 per rehired full-time equivalent employee.
All local businesses are eligible. Complete information on the grant program and documentation required is on the application form.
It is preferred that businesses use the online application. However, in the event that is not possible, the application form may be printed and mailed back along with the required documentation.
