We Need Your Help!

Together with our nonprofit partners we are organizing a mass rally to protect community services, and we need your help turning out as many people as possible.

Every day that goes by without a State budget, the pressure on nonprofits grows and so does the possibility of permanent program reductions, closures, lay-offs and harm to communities. Community nonprofits work with people who have behavioral health issues, feed the hungry, protect children, house the homeless, work with the developmentally disabled, and much more. These are not optional services. They are necessities for our neighbors, friends and families. Join us in support of passing a budget that protects funding for community services.
