For us, place is where each of us and all of us belong. It is our role in the world community, our part in a constellation within which we are a natural and expected part. It represents the notion that the world is incomplete without everyone having their place in it.

Makom on a Roll

Louise Ottilie Fresco, Dutch scientist and writer known for her work on globally sustainable food production once said, "Food, in the end, in our own tradition, is something holy. It's not about nutrients and calories. It's about sharing. It's about honesty. It's about identity."

Juxtaposition

On April 7, the Maryland legislature adjourned after a grueling 90-day session. Central to this years session was the 2026 Maryland budget. Many of you will have seen Makom’s e-Blasts and Calls to Action; and, many of you answered that call and wrote, called, e-mailed and even visited with your elected leaders.

Happy New Year?

For the 250 people with IDD supported by Makom and the nearly 500 employees of the organization, all of us together in a magnificent melting pot, all of us singularly focused on the profundity of our work, and our obligations to one another, we look forward to this new year with trepidation.
