United Ministries, Inc.

Two-year funding for continued support of Earl’s Place, a transitional housing facility for recovering addicts who are homeless and/or HIV positive. By providing stable housing for up to 17 homeless men at any given time, Earl’s Place offers residents the opportunity to enroll in GED classes and/or participate in job training programs until they complete the program and are employed, earning sufficient income to cover the cost of moving into permanent housing.

Women’s Housing Coalition

Two-year funding to continue support of the Relapse Prevention/Mental Health Program for homeless women in Baltimore City. This initiative includes the training of case managers to detect warning signs of relapse and strategies so as to assist clients with medication management.

Safe and Sound Campaign for Children and Youth, Inc .

Two-year funding toward the Public Safety Compact, a pre-release and reentry substance-abuse program for 250 ex-offenders each year. The goal of the program is to increase the chances that ex-offenders can successfully reenter their communities by linking in-patient substance-abuse treatment with community-based case management/reentry services. The early-release clients receive wraparound services, including substance-abuse treatment and residence in halfway houses before reintegrating into family and community.
