Local social enterprises have the ability to create a full spectrum network of support, care and continuity for the Baltimore community. To strengthen our collaborative efforts, this week we hosted the first of many “Community Partners Evenings.” This was a powerful opportunity to share not only our Retrain, Reclaim and Renew philosophy, but also to hear heart-warming “second chance stories” while enhancing our community bonds.
Many thanks to the following agencies for their participation and partnership: Marion House; MD Department of Corrections; International Rescue Committee; Easter Seals/Veterans Administration; Maryland New Directions; Living Classrooms; Goodwill Industries; Threads; Employment Connection/Mayor’s Office of Employment Development; Saint Edwards Workforce Development; Saint Agnes Health Institute; B’More Clubhouse; Catholic Charities and the Center for Urban Families
In this short video, you’ll hear an introduction from Second Chance’s Executive Director, Mark Foster. Stay tuned for more Community Partner Evenings in the days ahead!
