WORKSITE INFORMATION

Most of Southern Maryland is comprised of upper middle income families and therefore, low-income housing or the very poor are difficult to locate. Half of our work sites are with local agencies who assist the homeless and the developmentally delayed and the physically disabled. The other half of our work sites are assisting the elderly in our area. Many of our residents need this assistance to maintain their homes which allows them to remain in their homes.
