Continuum of Care Membership
Interested in becoming a CoC Member? Fill out one of these forms to register as an Individual or Agency member. By completing the Membership Form, you are declaring your commitment to participate actively and contribute to our collective goal to make homelessness in Baltimore City rare, brief, and non-recurring. There are two membership options described below.
As we strive to develop an inclusive, diverse, and highly engaged group of stakeholders, membership in the Baltimore City Continuum of Care is free. To establish eligibility for voting, Membership Commitment forms must be submitted at least one week prior to a Continuum meeting.
Please use the links below to navigate to the membership application forms. Please note — if your email is already in the system, you will be sent an activation code before proceeding. The activation code may take a few minutes to arrive. We deeply appreciate your partnership and collaboration!
Agency Membership
Agency membership forms should be completed by a designated “lead” at your agency, who will then have an opportunity to add an unlimited number of affiliated members/employees. Once the application is approved, you will be contacted to receive information on how to add additional contacts. The agency lead will serve as the main point of contact and be able to designate three participants to vote on their behalf. All leads and members will still receive updates, communication, and meeting invites from the CoC.
Individual Membership
Individual membership is reserved for participants who are not affiliated with a participating member agency.

Donate
Thank you for your support. The Journey Home relies on donations from people like you to address the unique needs of our unhoused neighbors. Your donations to The Journey Home Flex Fund contribute to our mission to make homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurring in Baltimore City and enable us to continue to meet people where they are and to remove barriers to housing stability by addressing gaps in critical needs.
Thanks to your generosity, we are able to provide health care services, case management, job readiness training, educational support, and housing services to thousands of people experiencing homelessness each year.
The Journey Home is appreciative of gifts of any size. As you decide on the level of your contribution, we encourage you to consider the following:

Three dollars and fifty cents can cover a one day bus pass and allow a person experiencing homelessness to attend job training, an interview, or a meeting for permanent housing.
$16.50
Sixteen dollars and fifty cents can pay for a bus pass for a week.
$25.00
Twenty-five dollars can cover one night in a shelter for one individual, including meals and services.
$50.00
Fifty dollars can provide kitchen and basic household supplies (like bedding) for a family moving from homelessness to permanent housing.
$100
One-hundred dollars can support an individual on the way to gainful employment by providing them with essential items, such as uniforms and equipments.
$600
Six-hundred dollars can furnish an apartment for an individual or family moving from homelessness to permanent housing.
$2,500.00
Two-thousand and five-hundred dollars could allow a family to move out of homelessness by covering their security deposit and/or first month’s rent—and linking them to supportive services, such as counseling and case management.
