Episcopal Community Services of Maryland

Guided by our faith and commitment to social justice, and in collaboration with others, Episcopal Community Services of Maryland strives to address the injustice of severe poverty, which is embedded in communities and disempowers individuals. ECSM provides education and support systems as well as advocates for families and individuals seeking help in overcoming adversity. ECSM operates three programs to help people navigate the obstacles of homelessness, poverty, and reentry into society. The Ark is the only state-accredited preschool for homeless children in Baltimore City. The Club is an academic and community arts-based after school and summer camp program for youth ages 5 - 14 living in the Collington Square neighborhood of East Baltimore.Jericho is a workforce development program which assists male ex-offenders who are returning to the community and are motivated to participate in job training and placement.
