At Jacob's Well

At Jacob’s Well, a Baltimore nonprofit, has provided supportive and transitional housing for homeless, mentally ill residents for more than 35 years. Our mission is “to promote dignity, accountability and self-esteem in order to improve the quality of life and residential stability of our clients.”  We are now seeking a new leader who will help us to continue to meet that mission and lead our growth into the future. 

Established in 1985 and incorporated in 1986, At Jacob’s Well (AJW) works to end the cycle of homelessness for mentally ill men and women by providing them supportive housing that promotes their dignity and recognizes their individual accountability. Our program provides transitional and subsidized housing for 37 residents. At Jacob’s Well does not provide medical or mental health care directly. Instead, our case management staff links our residents to the network of health care and other services that are available to them in the community.
