ABOUT Economic Action Maryland...

Economic Action Maryland champions economic rights and housing justice through advocacy, research, consumer education, and direct service. We advance local, state, and federal policy, work to reform predatory debt collection practices, decriminalize poverty, and secure older adult resources. Economic Action Maryland provides direct services to ensure every Marylander has access to safe, affordable housing, free from discrimination, harassment, and code violations and remove barriers to economic wellbeing that disproportionately effect low-income older adults, individuals, and communities of color.

Founded in 2000, Economic Action Maryland (formerly the Maryland Consumer Rights Coalition) is a leading force for economic justice. We are a statewide nonprofit movement of individuals and organizations that advances economic inclusion and financial justice through research, advocacy, consumer education, and direct service.
