CBP Covid-19 Crisis Resource Guide

Our Partners in Central Baltimore are stepping up and collaborating in support of residents, businesses, and other stakeholders in the area. CBP created this Crisis Resource Guide to share information we are gettting that will help our communities (and everyone else) get through the COVID-19 crisis together. For additional partner updates, please follow CBP’s social media platforms (Twitter and Facebook). For small business updates, please follow CBP’s and Explore the Core’s social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram). As ever, please do not hesitate to reach out to CBP staff if we might be of help. Contact information is below.

We will continue to update the information, and improve the interface to make it more user friendly.
