Nonprofit Montgomery has created a webpage with updates, resources, and news from the sector, as well as from the County government, philanthropy, and more. We’ll post timely information for nonprofits and any news we receive from DHHS and the County Executive.
Earlier this week, the Montgomery County Department of Health & Human Services Administration team joined us for a virtual meeting on the many questions the nonprofit sector has on Covid-19 impact. In case you missed the meeting, click here or to the right to watch it.
Thank you to the DHHS team for meeting with us. We’d also like to thank BB Otero from the County Executive’s Office and our other nonprofit executives for all your leadership and input.
