On Nov. 15, 2022, Councilmembers Craig Rice and Will Jawando present a proclamation to Malaika Wande, a sophomore at Montgomery Blair High School and the winner of the seventh annual “Councilmember for a Day” program competition. Malaika’s winning video, “Affordable Housing in Montgomery County,” demonstrated obstacles to home ownership for military and middle-class families in our community and had a call to action for elected officials to address challenges to home ownership.
