Strong City Baltimore takes a holistic approach to building and strengthening neighborhoods and people. Strong City Baltimore's mission is to build and strengthen neighborhoods and people. We do not believe in quick fixes to complex problems. Experience has shown us that lasting change is achieved by supporting neighborhood leaders, fostering civic engagement, and fostering physical development. Over the last decade, we have become a citywide force with expertise in numerous areas: strengthening local schools, block by block neighborhood revitalization work, managing an AmeriCorps VISTA program, providing adult literacy programs, running a community center, and supporting over 100 local nonprofits with fiscal sponsorship. Although this work is diversified, it is unified: all of Strong City’s activities have the common purpose of making our city’s people and neighborhoods stronger.
