Programs: Project Plase permanent housing apartments and emergency housing - we provide permanent housing and emergency housing in two locations in Baltimore city. At these shelters, we assist the clients to obtain rehabilitation, employment, medical treatment, and other services to overcome the reasons for their homelessness, and to prevent its reoccurrence.
CARE Rapid Rehousing - with government funding, we assist clients to find suitable and safe apartments, removing them from the streets and hotels and into homes of their own.
Outreach services - we provide counseling and other services to many of our clients who reside in permanent housing. Many of these clients have physical, mental, or other disabilities. This counseling helps assure these clients can continue to reside in permanent housing and receive the medical and other care that they need.
