About Beyond the Boundaries
Beyond the Boundaries embraces Catholic Social Teaching by promoting social equity through raising awareness of Systemic Racial Injustice and facilitating advocacy for Affordable Housing. The Program began in 1996 when Bishop John Ricard was asked to form the InterVicariate Task Force on Regional Issues for the express purpose of reflecting on the issues raised by Baltimore Unbound: A Strategy for Regional Renewal by David Rusk. Focusing on social equity, in this context, seeks to provide a just opportunity for all, primarily through economic, ethnic, racial and social desegregation. Beyond the Boundaries considers issues affecting the Baltimore metropolitan region that include Baltimore City and the Counties of Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Howard, Harford and Carroll as well as the parishes in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. It also assists other participating groups to collaboratively develop and promote policy solutions that can achieve racial justice and social equity within the region.
