Join a virtual watch party of the County Council's upcoming budget worksession! During the worksession, the County's Government Operations and Fiscal Policy Committee (GO) will discuss the proposed FY22 budget's funding of several of our priority issues including housing and policing.

Join JUFJ in Montgomery County for a watch party of a full Council budget worksession! The Council will review funding for alternatives to School Resource Officers (SROs), funding for nonprofits, funding for rent assistance, and funding for homeless services — this is one of the most important full council budget worksessions this session!

While we anticipate favorable outcomes for funding for nonprofits, rent assistance, and homelessness services, JUFJ and our partners in the MC Defund/Invest Coalition are asking for additional funding for culturally competent, licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), which is not yet guaranteed in the budget. 

Our watch party will begin at 9:30 AM. We will begin with a short relational activity, and then review background information on the budget. The worksession will begin at 9:45 AM. 

Join the Montgomery County Budget Team for our next campaign meeting! No previous budget experience required.
