Bold and unapologetic advocating for Black women and girls in Prince George's County Maryland

NC100BW Prince George’s County Maryland Chapter has worked intently to unapologetically advocate for Black women and girls in our community and surrounding communities. Our advocacy and community service have provided a range of educational programs in the areas of health awareness, generational wealth, SisterNomic$, mentoring and legislative support for bills that directly and indirectly impact women and the underserved.

We are proud of our work in the community to enhance knowledge and opportunities through our advocacy programs and having a presence in Annapolis, Maryland advocating and supporting legislation that address issues that directly impact Black women and girls. The hours of community service, advocacy, and volunteerism are amazing, and Chapter members’ commitment are exceptional.

Our Chapter accepted National’s initiative challenge to participate in the mentoring program for school age students, introducing coding to elementary, middle school and high school students: teaching them fundamental and intermediate skills of coding. Our Everyone Can Code Keeping it 100 Prince George’s County Maryland Chapter student participants faithfully attended the virtual classes twice a week for 8 weeks with excitement. Our young coders have excelled in leadership and peer support to other youth throughout the Country participating in this program. During the 2025 Biennial Conference, one of our amazing Black youth coders was acknowledged by National and spoke during Biennial for his enthusiasm and commitment to the program and his initiating peer support for fellow classmates.

I would like to share several of our dynamic advocacy programs for Black women and girls that we have successfully implemented impactfully over the last year. The hours of community service, advocacy, and volunteerism are amazing, and that our sisters have committed themselves is exceptional.

The Health Committee held a mental health fitness day for families that drew more than 90 community participants. The University of Maryland School of Nursing and Governor’s health mobile unit provided health wellness check for attendees was well received.

The Education and Mentoring Committee held twice monthly mentoring and coaching sessions with several alternative middle school Black girls on life skills and building self-esteem. Their monthly sessions enriched the students' self-awareness and esteem so that the began to think about life possibilities after high school. Through the encouragement and coaching from Coalition Sisters, these Black girls' behaviors and future were enriched. The Education and Mentoring Committee held a Regional Black Authors’ Book Fair to show community youth, parents, guardians and teachers the importance of showcasing characters in books that “look just like them”.

The Economic Empowerment Committee's engagement and commitment to Black women entrepreneurs by providing training and resources that will support new and experienced entrepreneurs to build and scale their business.

The Public Policy Committee’s programs focused on voter registration and voting. We held a candidates’ forum for Prince George’s County Maryland residents to introduce the candidates’ vision and plan as they become more informed as they prepare for the June 2026 election for County Executive, State’s Attorney, and Sheriff. The marketing and advertising were done to focus on the importance of voting and being informed about the candidates’ vision and goals for the County. The attendance was more than 700. Our Chapter’s visit to Delegates in Annapolis enabled us to deliver letters of support to Bills in Legislation for voting rights in Maryland was well received and appreciated.
