Since 1992, @MD_CommColleges has served as a unified voice advocating for Maryland’s 16 community colleges and supports the educational needs of over 100,000 students across the state. @ChrisVanHollen, @RepStenyHoyer, @RepAprilDelaney, @RepJohnnyO, and I met with the Executive and Legislative Directors of MACC, Dr. Brad Phillips and Drew Jabin, along with representatives of our community colleges – including @AnneArundelCC and @HowardCC – to brainstorm ways to expand workforce and cyber training opportunities, improve financial transparency for students, and increase access to Pell Grants. Community colleges are often a crucial first step into higher education for many students. Supporting their success means supporting our future.
