Whether you are asking for:
-advice for a research experiment
-mentoring for a big career decision
-support in a difficult situation
...or any other number of things, asking for help is a sign of strength and wisdom, not weakness or inability.

On rainy days like today, sewage backups are a big problem in #Baltimore homes. If it happens to you, you should be able to get help from the city with cleaning & disinfecting . Call 311 right away, then take this survey or send us a message about it: bit.ly/3cBGY1T

We want to hear from you! bit.ly/3cBGY1T Clean Water Action, Blue Water Baltimore, Environmental Integrity Project.” On the right, a photo of several people holding large signs outside of Baltimore City Hall. One looks like a plumbing pipe and says “Pipes should work for People.” Another looks like a poop emoji and says “This sh$t is expensive.”
