Things To Do:
Attend the next branch meeting on Nov. 16, 2024 from 10:00 – 11:30 am at Grace Methodist Church, 5407 N Charles St, Baltimore, MD 21210. The Blueprint for Maryland’s Future (https://blueprint.marylandpublicschools.org/) was passed by the General Assembly in 2021 to advance public education in the state. It is a set of policies and dedicated funding to transform Maryland’s early childhood, elementary and secondary education system to levels of high-performing systems around the world. John Staley, the Blueprint Coordinator for Baltimore County Public Schools will be our guest speaker. He will focus on what are the five pillars, how it is funded and how we can support these efforts as individual citizens.
Join AAUW members for a crucial post-election webinar exploring the path forward for women’s economic security under the new U.S. President and the 119th Congress. As the nation navigates a new political landscape, we will dive into key issues such as pay equity, paid family leave, and affordable childcare. Our expert panel will discuss pressing policy solutions to address these challenges and analyze the political outlook for advancing women’s economic well-being in the coming years. By the end, you’ll understand how these economic policies impact your life and how you can build a stronger, more equitable future for women nationwide. More information and registration.
