IWIRC Volunteers at My Sister’s Place Women’s Center
The Greater Maryland IWIRC Network generously provided a breakfast of chicken biscuits and fresh fruit to more than 60 homeless women on Tuesday, February 2, 2016 at My Sister’s Women’s Center in downtown Baltimore. My Sister’s Place Women’s Center provides a safe haven for women and their children experiencing homelessness. Through a variety of programs, My Sister’s Place helps to transform the lives of many women trying to reach stability and self-sufficiency. It offers daily meal services, 3 times daily, 365 days each year. It also offers a day shelter where the women can do laundry, shower, use the phone, and get referrals to overnight shelter. Laura Bouyea (Venable), Kristen Siracusa (Miles & Stockbridge) and Lisa Yonka Stevens (Yumkas, Vidmar, Sweeney & Mulrenin) were on hand to serve the breakfast. Several women came up to personally thank Laura, Kristen and Lisa for the breakfast.
My Sister's Place Women's Center is a comprehensive resource and day shelter for homeless and impoverished women and their children in Baltimore City. In addition to serving three meals a day, My Sister’s Place Women’s Center also provides access to services such as case management, education, and job training to women in Baltimore City.
