Equity

A central principle of MOST's mission is address opportunity gaps by making access to afterschool and summer programs equitable across Maryland. We approach our work with Community Schools as a strategy to build equity for learning.  Our advocacy for increased funding and resources prioritizes communities impacted by generational disinvestment in addition to  historical and contemporary racism and prejudice.

MOST also committed to ongoing reflection on equity within our organization and business practices.

In reflection of that work, we are taking stock with our staff, board, and constituents and will be updating our official equity statement and policies in the 2024-2025 operating year.

MOST has collected several resources around race and equity to make available to the field.
