A women-led grassroots organization that connects like-minded people in Frederick County who want to protect our Democracy and our hard-won freedoms.
Rise Up Frederick is a women-led grassroots organization that connects like-minded people in Frederick County who want to protect our Democracy and our hard-won freedoms. We oppose the dismantling of our Democracy and the erasure of our traditional American values. We insist that our local, state, and national leaders defend our Constitutional processes, demand honesty and accountability in government, and protect equal rights for all. We collaborate with community partners to mitigate the local impact of the administration actions and policies.
Rise Up Frederick meets monthly in Frederick, MD. The workgroups may meet at the meeting or occassionally in between the meetings. Join the email newsletter to get updates on events, action items, and other highlights. Join the Facebook Group to chat with other members, share ideas, and get inspiration.
Simple actions you can do to make a difference:
**THERE WILL BE NO RISE UP MONTHLY MEETING IN JULY**
We are hosting the Rise Up Sing-Along Watch Party on Sunday, June 14 at ERUCC Community Room, 15 W. Church St. in Frederick.
On Freedom's Eve - A Vigil for Democracy will be on July 3, 15 W Church St. in Frederick. We will gather on the eve of the day we celebrate our country's independence from the tyranny of kings to hear the words of the Declaration of Independence. Let those words, written 250 years ago, give us renewed energy as we continue to work for liberty and justice for all.
Share the word on the Federal Worker Meetup on June 29.
Check out the presentation from Dana Mooney of PFLAG, Information on FCPS BOE Election 2026.
The next monthly meeting will be August 10, 6 - 7:30pm, at 15 W Church St.
