Overview

Mission

We connect residents of marginalized communities in baltimore to high quality health care services and seek to address any obstaclesthat might threaten that connection. We do this by building long-term partnerships between volunteers and community residents, empoweringboth parties to learn from each other as they work to promote health and well being within baltimore's fragmented health care system.

What it reported doing in 2024

We operate a harm reduction service program, offering safer drug use supplies, overdose education, naloxone, drop in hours, street-based outreach, and case management services. In fiscal year 2025 we reached more than 6,500 individuals with life-saving harm reduction supplies and pathways to care. Additionally, our drop-in center assisted over 16,000 individuals, helping to provide services such as hot meals, showers, and clean clothing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 83% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
