Living Classrooms Foundation - CARE Program

Living Classrooms Foundation strengthens communities and inspires young people to achieve their potential through hands-on education and job training, using urban, natural, and maritime resources as “living classrooms.”

Living Classrooms Foundation is a Baltimore-Washington based non-profit educational organization with a distinctive competency in experiential learning—literally learning by direct experience, or what we call “learning by doing.” We apply our skill in three program areas:

• Educating students through our own charter school, through after-school and supplemental education programs, and through environmental experiences, with special emphasis on serving students who live in high-risk environments
• Eliminating barriers to success for young adults and families through community development, workforce preparation, and life skills training
• Educating the general public, and students in particular, about the significance of the region's maritime heritage and its role in shaping who we are as a community and nation
