Baltimore County

Baltimore County seeks a partner to conduct PR services and outreach for its New American Community program.

County Executive Jimmy Olszweski on June 7 announced the formation of a New Americans Task Force to build and maintain positive relationships with members of the immigrant community.

The NATF is to share research on policies, practices and services that impact immigrant health, well-being, economic success and safety.

Baltimore wants a partner to facilitate meetings with County Immigrant Affairs staffers to help shape the community engagement plan.

It also will meet with residents, neighborhood groups, faith communities, athletic leagues, and cultural/ethnic groups to address issues such as economic development, entrepreneurship, education, equitable access and the needs of the New American Community.

The firm will handle social media activity and attend resource fairs and other community events.

The NATF will submit a report to Olszewski on March 31.

Proposals are due Sept. 29 at Baltimore County's e-portal.
