The Maryland Commission on Civil Rights is accepting applications for the Western Maryland Advisory Council
MCCR is seeking leaders who are enthusiastic about promoting and improving civil and human rights in their communities to serve on MCCR's Western Maryland Advisory Council!
- Members must be at least 18 years old and reside within Frederick, Washington, Garrett, or Allegany counties.
- Members will be appointed as individuals and not as official representatives of organizations.
- One Member will be prioritized as a qualified applicant between the ages of 18 to 25.
- Members should be familiar with and supportive of MCCR’s mission, vision, and statutory jurisdiction.
The objectives of the Western Maryland Advisory Council (WMAC) to MCCR are:
- To assist with the furtherance of the mission of the Maryland Commission on Civil Rights
- To serve as a regional point-of-contact on issues within the area
- To increase public awareness of the services offered by MCCR as well as their protections under State law
- To build sustainable partnerships and connections to promote and improve civil and human rights statewide.
In short, the WMAC will serve as the “eyes and ears” of the MCCR in the Western Maryland region (Garrett, Allegany, Washington, and Frederick counties) and assist in forming a stronger, strategic network of partners committed to civil and human rights in Maryland.
MCCR partners with leaders and organizations representing individuals from all walks of life in the interest of promoting equity, opportunity, and inclusion for all. If you want to be a part of a statewide effort to build bridges between people across races, ethnicities, incomes, religions, and generations, then MCCR wants to partner with you.
