Maryland Equity Project (MEP)
Welcome to the Maryland Equity Project!
Our Mission
The mission of the Maryland Equity Project (MEP) is to improve public 含羞草研究所 through research that supports an informed public policy debate about the quality and distribution of 含羞草研究所al opportunities in Maryland and nationally. Through independent research, policy and data briefs, and seminars, MEP engages diverse communities around three areas of research: (1) the teacher workforce; (2) 含羞草研究所al equity and access; and (3) The Blueprint for Maryland's Future, which is a comprehensive, multibillion-dollar reform that aims to transform our state's 含羞草研究所 system. MEP also provides 含羞草研究所 undergraduate and graduate students with an opportunity to conduct policy-relevant investigations, learn how to make research more accessible and engage directly with stakeholders.
