SUMMARY:RESI Event: Public transportation
DESCRIPTION:This past May\, the Regional Economic Studies Institute held its annual Maryland Workforce Outlook Forum. During the event\, we presented independent research on disparities in education\, income\, and health at the neighborhood level across Maryland. In addition\, we had a great discussion with several panelists who are working every day to solve the pressing issues outlined in the presentation. \nI’m inviting you to join us to continue that discussion. \nStarting in September\, RESI will host five roundtables where we will discuss topics as they relate to Greater Baltimore\, including their causes\, what solutions exist\, and how policymakers can help support ongoing efforts. After each session\, RESI will publish a policy brief covering the issues and the results of the discussion. \n\nSeptember 26\, Public transportation: How do we ensure that residents without access to a car can access high-quality\, stable jobs?\n\nAll sessions will be held at 3 p.m. at 7400 York Road\, Suite 301\, in Towson. \nIf you can’t make it\, but still want to talk about these topics with us\, please let me know. Email me at msiers@towson.edu and we’ll schedule a time to talk.
