Department of Housing and Community Development MARYLAND RECOVERY NOW: Nonprofits-Local Government

OVERVIEW: DHCD is receiving $20 million in Maryland Recovery Now Funds via SB496. Funds are to be distributed to local governments to make grant awards to local nonprofits. Grant awards will be made to each jurisdiction’s economic development office (the Grantee) that will then make awards to local nonprofits. DHCD will provide the Grantee with requirements/expectations for their local grant program, but the local programs will vary by jurisdiction. Grantees will use an application form in IntelliGrants to provide DHCD with information on how they will offer, award and administer their local grants for nonprofits as well as provide any required organization documents.
