Our Impact

The crisis is real – and it’s up to us to do something.

Homelessness is on the rise. Nearly 5,200 people experience homelessness across Greater Baltimore every year. On any given night, more than 1,500 people don’t have a safe place to call their own.

And the growing epidemic of substance abuse is one of the greatest public health crises in our time. Baltimore has the highest number of drug overdose deaths in the country. In addition to taking lives, the crisis of addiction destroys individuals, families, and neighborhoods – furthering the devastating cycle of homelessness and poverty.

In these uncertain times, more people find themselves struggling – emotionally, financially, and spiritually. Over the past few years, a growing number of people are experiencing the desperation and heartbreak of homelessness.
