Project PLASE Housing and Services

Overview of Services

Project PLASE empowers Baltimore’s most vulnerable homeless population to achieve health, housing and stability in their lives.

We provide Transitional Housing, Permanent Housing, and Supportive Services.

In our transitional shelters we also provide our residents with three meals daily and clothing as needed - making it easier for residents to focus on getting back on their feet. Each resident admitted to PLASE is assigned a case manager who works collaboratively with that client and partner agencies to address the underlying causes of their homelessness. The demographic break down of our clients: 

    • 76% of residents are HIV positive, 
    • 90% have a history of alcohol or substance abuse, 
    • 30% have severe mental health issues, 
    • and many are former-offenders or veterans.

Through PLASE's continuum of care, most clients in transitional housing move into permanent housing, such as independent living in an apartment, recovery house, a single room with shared facilities, or other supportive placements. PLASE continues to support many of our formerly homeless clients both after their transition to stable housing.
