Greetings from the Carroll County NAACP Branch #7014!

Thank you for your interest in the Carroll County NAACP. We are an active chapter whose mission is to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate racial hatred and racial discrimination. Our vision is to ensure a society in which all individuals have equal rights and there is no racial hatred or racial discrimination.

The NAACP works to educate all political candidates to support policies that improve access to quality education and economic opportunity, criminal justice reform, the environment, healthcare and youth empowerment, with a dedication to removing race-based hatred and discrimination from society.

Activities the Carroll County NAACP Chapter participated in this past year:

1) Partnership with The Carroll County Health Department on Carroll County COVID statistics and ways to help communicate information with others.

2) Partnership with local law information agencies on community policing efforts and what they are governed to do.

3) Invite each local high school Minority Student Unions to our general meetings to observe and get involved.

4) Partnership with Carroll County Public Schools for ways we can partner with them to keep minority community concerns relevant and involved.

5) Awarded local high school seniors Education Grants to assist them in affording higher education.

6) Partnered with McDaniel College students to form their own college NAACP Chapter.

Our chapter meets the fourth Thursday of each month at 7pm, with the exception of November and December (Holiday Celebration) when we meet on the third Thursday. We hope that you will join us in our mission by becoming an active member using the attached membership application.

Dec. 12, 2021 Meet Lynne Griffith the New Executive Director of the CCAC

The CCAC Board of Directors is thrilled to appoint Lynne Griffith as our new Executive Director.

Griffith is a Carroll County resident with vast leadership experience as a nonprofit administrator. An accomplished musician, she has a passion for the arts, arts education, and community engagement. Griffith recognizes the importance of team building and collaboration to create dynamic and synergistic partnerships throughout the county.

“I enthusiastically believe in the power of the Arts to profoundly impact people and communities, and I relish the opportunity to make that happen,” says Griffith.

The CCAC Executive Committee accepted the resignation of Eric Kerchner on December 8. “Lynne was a finalist in our recent search, and we are fortunate she was available, enthusiastic, and so very qualified to fill the position. We lucked out.” says Thomas Sterner, CCAC board president.

Help us give her a warm welcome in the comments!
