Public Affairs Firm Looking for Space in Anne Arundel County

A public affairs firm is hunting for a new office in Annapolis so it can be close to state legislators and better positioned to influence public policy.

The ten-year-old Hatcher Group is looking for space near the Maryland State House or Church Circle, President Ed Hatcher says.

It is currently leasing temporary space at 9 State Circle, headed by Dawn Stoltzfus, former spokeswoman for the Maryland Department of the Environment. Though Stoltzfus is currently the sole employee in Annapolis, Hatcher says he expects to add additional staff in the coming months.

Based in Bethesda, the 25-person firm opened its second office in Baltimore’s Mount Vernon neighborhood almost a year ago.

The company works with foundations and nonprofits to effect social change. Having an office in Annapolis will make it easier to work on communications initiatives to oppose the death penalty, support gay marriage, and back economic policies on behalf of low-income families, Hatcher says.
