Nonprofit organizations have played an outsized role in responding to the pandemic, from leading the public health response to supporting families as they navigate the economic fallout from the public health crisis. Yet many health and human services organizations are facing a compounding crisis as they struggle to respond to sustained demand for their services without the funding and flexibility they need. In this episode, we talk with Michael Corey, executive director of the Human Service Chamber of Franklin County, about the state of the human services sector nearly two and a half years after the pandemic began.
