In Baltimore, young people are finding ways to create their own economic opportunities through entrepreneurship. Dr. Ron Williams (Coppin State University) and Sara Cooper (The Annie E. Casey Foundation) join us to dig into research about youth entrepreneurship in Baltimore and show how community collaborations like the Baltimore-based Excellence in Entrepreneurial Learning (EXCEL) Research Project are creating pathways to success. This conversation kicks off our three-part series about helping young people thrive economically within safe communities. We'll explore how, with the right support, these young entrepreneurs are reshaping Baltimore's future.
