Nonprofit Montgomery Updates

6/9/2021

 
Nonprofit Montgomery Budget Advocacy
The FY22 Operating Budget approved Thursday has good news for nonprofits and the people we serve. In addition to new funding for Consolidated Service Hubs, safety net health clinics, and housing, the budget includes increases in nonprofit contracts.

Nonprofit Montgomery strongly advocated for a 3% increase in base budget contracts in all departments. Base budget contracts may extend over multiple years without cost of living increases, which can be harmful to nonprofits as costs increase each year.  

We are so pleased that the  FY22 Operating Budget includes:
  • The County Executive's 1.5% increase in nonprofit contracts in DHHS in the FY22 Operating Budget (a first!).
  • The Council added a 1.5% increase to DHHS contracts, for a total increase of 3%. This is a big win, as 90% of nonprofit contracts are held by DHHS.
  • The Council also added a 3% increase for nonprofit base budget contracts in the Department of Housing and Community Affairs and the Department of Recreation (another first!)
Thank you to our members for joining with us in advocating for nonprofits. And thank you to our County Councilmembers and their hardworking staff for their recognition of the importance of the nonprofit sector. As we know, nonprofits are more essential than ever.
