Beacon of Hope Maryland is committed to serving and providing addiction and mental and behavioral health services to underinvested and vulnerable children, adolescents, and adults. Due to systematic inequalities, many of our clients face persistent barriers and obstacles to getting and maintaining stable education, financial wealth, healthcare, housing, jobs, and other benefits and opportunities. Many of our clients have no or low, fixed incomes. Their incomes may only cover or barely cover their monthly expenses such as rent/mortgage, water, electric, and natural gas bills. Many of our clients do not have enough money to buy groceries and food to last an entire month due to their limited finances and other barriers. Consequently, some partake in risky behaviors to obtain money in order to provide for their selves, children, and families. Thus, some individuals put themselves in medical and life threatening predicaments to provide basic necessities for their families.

Furthermore, some of our clients have learning disabilities and comprehension problems, which make it challenging for them to manage their finances or to buy items to meet their basic living needs. Therefore, they need assistance with enhancing their mindset and developing skills sets to meet their education, physical, medical, mental, and social needs. Additionally, some of our clients let their pride get in their way of asking for and seeking community assistance due to various reasons such as trust issues. Subsequently, some of them may not apply for eligible programs and services to assist them. Consequently, we provide them with free or sliding-fee services, which impacts our business operations. Sadly, a lot of our clients experience the aforementioned challenges on a monthly basis.

We appreciate the support and contributions of our donors, because each donation helps us to expand and provide accessible healthcare services to our clients and underinvested populations; sustain families in their homes and communities; provide emergency aid and relief in the midst of a crisis, and put a smile on faces who were hopeless, but now hopeful because of your kind gesture!

Planned giving allows Beacon of Hope Maryland to continue with our commitment of providing comprehensive behavioral health, substance use prevention, and rehabilitative care and services while offering community assistance and emergency aid relief to our clients and underinvested individuals.
