Maryland Can Do Better for Children!

Early Successes
in the Maryland Can Do Better for Children Campaign

The Campaign

Maryland is the wealthiest state in the nation. Nevertheless, our children are only in the middle of the pack in areas such as education, health and safety. We have one of the largest performance gaps in America.

What does that mean? Far too many children are being left behind. We can open doors of opportunity for our young people and make Maryland stronger - or we can slam the doors shut.

At every moment of a child's life, it matters what we do. It matters what our policymakers do. And you can make a difference: join the Maryland Can Do Better for Children campaign and keep the pressure on so that our leaders will do the right thing.

Bottom line: Maryland's children need help, and they need YOU.

The Maryland Can Do Better for Children campaign promotes concrete solutions that can transform Maryland into a national model in child welfare, education, health, juvenile justice, economic security and racial equity.
