IN PARTICULAR, WE QUICKLY GATHERED AND DISSEMINATED INFORMATION RELATING TO THE THINGS NONPROFITS NEEDED TO KNOW ABOUT THE PANDEMIC, LIKE HOW TO ACCESS AND TRACK RELIEF FUNDING AND HOW TO MANAGE STAFF AND HR ISSUES DURING A PANDEMIC. WE STOPPED OTHER WORK WE WERE DOING TO ADVOCATE FOR THE INCLUSION OF NONPROFITS IN RELIEF FUNDING, PROGRAMS AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL LEVELS.
