Mayor’s Proposed Budget Cut Threatens Programs of Neighborhood Resource Center
The proposed budget cuts funding by 50% to two vital community centers that serve the East End: the Neighborhood Resource Center (NRC) of Greater Fulton Hill and the East District Family Resource Center of Church Hill. The Neighborhood Resource Center is a grassroots educational and cultural center serving low-wealth families in the Greater Fulton community. The majority of other non-profits in the budget, however, will see cuts averaging only 8%.
For the NRC, this poses a $15,000 shortfall to its Montessori Preschool program. The Preschool provides a high quality experience for Fulton area children that parents can afford due to a sliding scale fees structure funded in part by the City.
