The Port Business Wage Subsidy Program will award grants to eligible businesses directly impacted by the reduced operations at the Port. The purpose of the program is to minimize or eliminate the need for layoffs by enabling businesses to retain their employees until the Port fully reopens. For fund questions and press inquiries, please reach out to: Keyarah Watson, Director of Communications, Mayor’s Office of Employment Development and HyeSook Chung, President, Baltimore Civic Fund.
