Uniting for Action on the Maryland Economy
 

Uniting for Action on the Maryland Economy is a non-partisan initiative that brings Marylanders together to build relationships, strengthen collaboration skills, explore different views on economic issues, and work together to address economic challenges in MD.

​We have formed a select cohort of Maryland Uniters ages 18+ with wide-ranging views and a commitment to collaborating across divides on economic issues from September 2021 to June 2022. 
Picture
Maryland Uniters are on a mission to:
​​
1. Build relationships across geographic, political, racial, and other divides
2. Increase understanding of economic challenges across MD
​3. 
Strengthen individual skills for communicating and collaborating across divides 
4. Tackle economic challenges that impact all communities across MD
5. Make civic participation of ordinary Marylanders possible, probable, and powerful 
6. Contribute to improved civic health and democracy in MD

Program Overview
​Uniting for Action on the Maryland Economy follows three phases. During each phase, the cohort gathers in person and online for relationship-building, skill-building, dialogue, analysis, and intervention design. 
Picture
Interventions with Partner Organizations
Each Maryland Uniters team within the broader cohort is partnering with a Maryland organization to design and implement a project that 1) addresses an economic challenge (either local or statewide) identified by the group and 2) advances an initiative or goal of the organization.
