With the current economic situation, library customers are more frequently using library computers to apply for state assistance of all kinds -- including housing, education, unemployment, and more.
A great place to start is on the Maryland government website Maryland.gov. It brings together all of the information from the state including the various programs that are available for Marylanders.
Maryland.gov also has created a page specifically for bringing together the various services -- WeConnect You: Maryland. It includes links for many services and resources available for Maryland residents covering broad categories such as finance, employment, and food.
To look for non-governmental services, your customers may want to search the Maryland Community Service Locator. Provided by the Center for Substance Abuse Research (CESAR) at the University of Maryland, College Park, it includes information on local community services. Users can search for local services close to their address. Organizations included cover a wide range of services, such as senior citizens, support groups, job readiness, and health services.
