Our History

Truth to Power was born in 2018 as a program fiscally sponsored by the Baltimore Community Mediation Center. We started by serving Gwynn Falls Elementary with our after school program, teaching students how to meditate and express their thoughts about the community through art and discussion!

Our program expanded in 2019 to provide wraparound services at Frederick Douglass High School. Through our partnership with Baltimore City Health Department we were able to create opportunities for skill development.

In response to COVID-19 our team has shown resilience and pivoted to offer virtual after school and summer programming to help raise attendance at partner schools. Additionally we have seen the need in the community and partner with several community organizations to bring essential resources, food and PPE to those most in need!
