HB 147 Maryland House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

Nonprofit Organizations Navigator - Termination Provision - Repeal

HB 147 repeals a termination provision that would have ended Maryland's nonprofit organizations navigator program on June 30, 2027. The bill extends the program indefinitely by removing this sunset date, ensuring the navigator's continued operation within the Department of Commerce. The navigator provides direct technical assistance to nonprofits for state grant applications, helps resolve procedural delays in grant processes, and shares information about federal, state, and local grant opportunities. This change directly affects nonprofits seeking state grant funding and maintains their access to dedicated support services.
