Congratulations to all the Baltimore County “Community Heroes”, especially to Student Support Network founder and Board member, Laurie Taylor-Mitchell!

Laurie is described as:” An ‘amazing advocate for students living in poverty in Baltimore County,’ Taylor-Mitchell in 2015 created a 501-C3 nonprofit organization to provide vulnerable students at Loch Raven High School with the essentials they need to prepare them for a successful academic year. The program — now called the Student Support Network — was quickly expanded and currently serves 21 schools, providing supplies, emergency funding for families in need, and ongoing advocacy on behalf of those facing food insecurity.”
