State Leaders Visit Requity and Carver House

Maryland’s Secretary of Housing, Jake Day, recently visited Requity to see the work in action at the Carver House. During the visit, students led tours, shared their experiences, and demonstrated how they are gaining hands-on skills while contributing to real neighborhood revitalization.

The visit highlighted the growing momentum behind Requity’s model, where workforce development, housing, and community investment come together through student-led projects. Leaders from across the state had the opportunity to see firsthand how young people are building homes, earning wages, and stepping into meaningful career pathways.

Moments like this reinforce what makes this work so powerful. When students are trusted to lead real projects with real impact, they not only build skills, they help shape the future of their communities.
