Honoring the Life of Meghan Jones
On March 4, 2025, Councilmember Dawn Luedtke presented a proclamation to honor the life of Meghan Jones, who leaves a legacy of determination, commitment and advocacy for people with disabilities in Montgomery County and the state of Maryland.
Meghan was a force in creating a sense of community within the Down syndrome population and launched the Upcounty Community Resources to foster inclusion and acceptance in everyday life for people with developmental and intellectual differences.
Upon her passing, Meghan was recognized by Governor Moore for her important role in advocating for Maryland’s disability community, calling attention to challenges and working to be an active part of the solution.
