United Way’s Health programming is committed to health equity by improving social determinants of health throughout Central Maryland. One of the ways we do this is by building our region’s food resilience in historically redlined and marginalized communities.
People in too many neighborhoods across Greater Baltimore struggle with hunger and access to healthy food options, and mental health challenges are on the rise.
To help make our neighbors and neighborhoods stronger, more resilient, and healthier, we focus on:
- Food resilience to improve food access across Central Maryland, address food insecurity in marginalized communities, and provide food directly to people in need.
- Social-emotional well-being through trauma education and training for community members, volunteers, and supporters to help our neighbors in need.
- Emergency response by leveraging our partners, local leaders, and data resources to quickly and efficiently mobilize resources in response to local emergencies.
