Welcome to Springboard Youth Training Center

Empowering Baltimore’s Youth for a Brighter Tomorrow

At Springboard Youth Training Center, we’re more than just a youth service provider; we foster hope and catalyst for change in the heart of Baltimore. Our mission is clear: to empower and uplift the youth of our community through comprehensive support, stable housing, and workforce development opportunities.

In the bustling city of Baltimore, where over 2500+ youth face the harsh realities of homelessness and instability, Springboard Youth Training Center stands as a lifeline and a promise of better tomorrows.

Through a multifaceted approach, we address the immediate needs of our youth while paving the way for long-term success. Our commitment to providing short-term and long-term housing ensures that no young person has to face the streets alone.

But we go beyond just housing; our supportive services offer holistic care, including mental health counseling and essential life skills training, equipping our youth with the tools they need to thrive. Additionally, our vocational and workforce development programs provide valuable skills and employment opportunities, empowering our youth to build sustainable futures for themselves.

Supporting Baltimore’s Youth Through Innovation

The Youth Training center is a $18 million dollar state-of-the-art service project unlike any other facility of its kind in the state of Maryland. Complete with on-site case managers, behavioral health clinicians, workforce development personnel, residential staff and lodging features, the Youth Training Center seeks to be a comprehensive and innovative approach to addressing youth homelessness and instability.

Our focus is to make sure Baltimore City’s youth have the readiness and resources to transition into adulthood successfully with permanent housing, employment stability and mental health support.
