Funding will support the year-long Maryland History Day program for middle and high school students, Chautauqua presentations, sixty Speakers Bureau presentations, fifteen facilitated Community Conversations about issues of importance, and the Grant Program.

The Maryland Humanities Council will use the 2009 We the People funding to support five program areas that have proven effective in engaging diverse audiences: Maryland History Day, Chautauqua, Speakers Bureau, Community Conversations, and the Grant program. Each of these program areas offers Marylanders the opportunity to personally explore the rich diversity of America's history and culture and become more civically engaged.
