Bon Secours Partnership
Are you tired of making the same decisions and expecting different results?
Are you ready to prove to yourself and everyone else that you’ve changed?
Are you convinced that with the right motivation and support you can change the path of your life?
If you answered “yes” to either of those questions, the Goodwill Job Readiness program at the Bon Secours Family Support Center is for you! Goodwill Industries of the Chesapeake, Inc. has partnered with the Bon Secours of Maryland Foundation (BSMF) to help adults, in Southwest Baltimore, ages 18 and older, to overcome barriers to achieving self-sufficiency as part of their Working Families Initiative. In addition to Job Readiness, Goodwill’s partnership with Bon Secours provides participants with a financial asset building, and job placement assistance component.
The Working Families Initiative and the Operation ReachOut-Southwest (OROSW) Community Coalition, represent a new framework for helping residents of Southwest Baltimore achieve economic self-sufficiency and improve the quality of life.

The other partner is the Bon Secours of Maryland Foundation, the hospital’s community development arm. The two groups joined in the mid-1990s to tackle a bleak set of problem.
