Men and Families Center

The Men and Families Center improves the quality of relationships between fathers and their children, thus enhancing the preservation of families. The Center is a coordinating place for East Baltimore and their families that increases the acces­sibility of services and community awareness. The Center addresses their specific needs through a holistic array of services that are designed to meet men where they are and move them towards self empowerment. Various volunteer opportunities are available. The JHU Consultant group helped devlop a grant application on behalf of the Center to the Abell Foundation for funds to implement a component of their newly-revitalized comprehensive male service program, Rites of Passage (a program for men of ages 17 to 25).
