Join Maryland Philanthropy Network and Maryland Nonprofits for a joint member convening to learn about federal policy impacts on nonprofits and perspectives around the philanthropic response. Grounded in a spirit of solidarity, this convening will feature a presentation by Candid researcher Anna Koob who will share important new research on nonprofits’ financial resiliency and foundation funding trends in recent years for Maryland as well as across the nation.
Join Maryland Philanthropy Network's Health Funders Affinity Group and the Affinity Group on Aging for the third conversation in our mental health series. Our distinguished panel will share their expertise and intense work to create and sustain a 988 mental health crisis hotline. Together we will explore national and state models and their funding supports, the development plan for the initiative, and learn about Maryland’s need to implement and advocate for its urgency at the 2022 Legislative session. This is a call to action – 988 is not just a phone number – it is a proactive resource for people reaching out for help.
