The Baltimore Banner selected 15 community leaders as its 2025 Emerging Leaders honorees, who will be recognized at an event in May.
This is the third year for the event, which launched in 2023 to shine a light on the next generation of leaders under the age of 40 who are making an impact in their community. The honorees are described as rising leaders driving change throughout Maryland and have shown a personal commitment to serving the community.
All honorees were nominated by colleagues, leaders or peers. A selection committee made up of members from The Baltimore Banner along with a group of leaders in the community vetted the nominations and selected the final list of honorees.
Here are the honorees:
