Nonprofit leaders, foundations, civic leaders, elected officials, business leaders, and members of the community who care about these values are invited to be part of this inclusive public conversation. We will talk about why it is of enduring importance to uphold the rights of all residents to prosper and thrive, what organizations and elected leaders are doing, and what we can all do together to create a more inclusive, just, equitable, accessible and prosperous society here in Maryland.

Maryland Women’s Heritage Center Board President, Kathi Santora, has affirmed MWHC’s presence as we use our own resources to promote equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility in today’s moment in history:  “As a nonpartisan nonprofit organization since 2004, Maryland Women’s Heritage Center(MWHC) has always maintained political neutrality and works to simply inspire Maryland women and girls to expect and demand equality by telling and preserving stories of courageous and accomplished women, past and present. Now, though, we are thinking more than usual about the women we have honored for the past several decades and how they resisted injustice, inequality, sexism, misogyny and violence. Many took risks to fight for their own rights and for those of their neighbors and the generations yet to come. Some went to jail for their activism. We owe it to them to use our voice, programs and advocacy to join the fight for what is right.”
