Transitional Housing. Medical Care. Hope.
The Village of Hope, in Salisbury, Maryland, is a not-for-profit, non-denominational organization which provides a transitional living program and medical care to economically disadvantaged residents of the Lower Shore of Maryland.
The Village works in partnership with clients and their families to build skills and abilities to empower them to lead self-sufficient, productive lives. The Village of Hope grew out of The Joseph House, a ministry in Salisbury that serves the poor and homeless, founded by Sister Mary Elizabeth Gintling of The Little Sisters of Jesus and Mary.
Women accepted into our transitional housing program come from all walks of life. Often, they are caught in a self-perpetuating cycle of homelessness, domestic violence, alcohol and/or drug abuse and financial deprivation. The program offers up to two years of residency in one of 14 furnished apartments located in the Salisbury Village of Hope residence building. Clients of the Village are required to establish a written, time-oriented plan for achieving self-sufficiency.
Through various federal and state government programs, as well as funding from non-profit agencies, residents are provided opportunities to attend classes at Wor Wic Community College, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Salisbury University or other educational facilities in order to achieve their newly developed goals and become productive members of society.
The Village of Hope medical clinic, a separate facility on the same campus, provides medical care to any adult in the community, regardless of his or her ability to pay. Fees are calculated on an income-based sliding scale for those without health coverage of any kind. Medicaid and Medicare are accepted, as are some private insurance plans. Care is provided by licensed medical providers augmented by pro bono care rendered by several area physicians.
The Village of Hope is widely recognized as an outstanding Delmarva charity. We are proud to serve the Eastern Shore and welcome you to get involved. Click here to find out how you can help.
