U Empower of Maryland (UEMD) is a community-based nonprofit resource hub serving Southwest Baltimore. At the UEMD HUB, we identify needs and create solutions by connecting neighbors to wraparound support under one roof—from fresh food access and weekly meal support to benefits navigation, health insurance, housing support, therapy connections, mentorship, workforce readiness, and support for returning citizens.
