- Self-defined Neighborhood Mutual Aid Groups will be included in our Mutual Aid Groups Directory.
- All groups that submit information about the resource/s they provide will be reviewed for possible inclusion in our Community Resource Library.
Step 2: Tell us what your group does!
- Once you’ve registered your group, tell us about the resource/s you provide.
- Submissions will be reviewed for inclusion in our Community Resource Library.
Step 3: Keep us updated as your group evolves!
