Join Maryland Philanthropy Network’s Health and Education Funders Affinity Groups for an update from Crista Taylor and Adrienne Breidenstine from Behavioral Health System Baltimore, Inc. a non-profit that serves as the local behavioral health authority (LBHA) for Baltimore City, and Baltimore City Public Schools Health & Specialist Student Services, Dr. Courtney Pate and Ashley Collins on grants that have been awarded, to date, to Baltimore City organizations under the Consortium of Coordinated Community Supports funding opportunity.

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for a virtual conversation to learn about the recovery effort over the past two months including an update from the Governor's Office and on the philanthropic response from the three established funds - Maryland Tough Baltimore Strong Key Bridge Fund at the Baltimore Community Foundation, the City of Baltimore’s Key Bridge Emergency Response Fund, and the Bridging the Gap Fund of United Way of Central Maryland. We will also have a data presentation from the Baltimore Metropolitan Council on the regional impact of the Key Bridge collapse and the effects on jobs, transportation, and environmental justice.

To assist with informing the network and the collective discussion about the ongoing philanthropic response to recent federal policy decisions, Maryland Philanthropy Network will host regular virtual meetings in the coming months to bring the latest news and to create an information exchange opportunity for members. Join MPN staff and your philanthropic peers to share updates, nonprofit support strategies underway within the network, where you need support, and any questions for your peers in the context of the changing political environment.
