Baltimore Welcome Center
Welcome to Baltimore

At Global Refuge, we believe everyone should be welcomed with dignity and open arms.
Welcome Centers serve as a one-stop shop for newcomers—a place where families can walk in the door and immediately have access to the support they need, from career development to medical and mental healthcare. These Centers provide a next level of service, offering protection-centered and trauma-informed case management, and connections to essential community resources.
Unless otherwise noted, the Center serves those residing in the Baltimore Metropolitan Area, which includes Baltimore City and Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Carroll, Howard, and Harford counties.
