Motivated individuals in our community are earning a living wage.<\/p>

At MND, we believe that career-minded employment, which provides a living wage, will help low-income individuals in Baltimore maintain family units, stay substance abuse free, crime free, retain employment, and maintain a safe home for their children in order to build a strong and safe community.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Founded in 1973 as New Directions for Women, MND initially received recognition in Baltimore by helping “displaced” homemakers secure paid employment. As national priorities and community needs changed, New Directions for Women broadened its scope and became Maryland New Directions in 1985. Today, MND serves all adult residents of Baltimore City aged 18-60, and has helped over 141,000 individuals with severe barriers to employment find success in the workplace.<\/span><\/p>

From single parents to ex-offenders, youth to older workers, our goals are to assist disadvantaged job-seekers to identify career paths, find a job, develop their careers, and stay employed so they can become self-sustaining and contributing members of their families and communities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
