Assistance Network

The Assistance Network, based in Odenton, MD, is dedicated to supporting families in crisis by providing essential food assistance and emergency resources. Established by local ministers in response to the increasing need for urgent help, we aim to offer a dignified and efficient process for those seeking support. Our services include a food pantry stocked with non-perishable goods, weekly distributions of fresh produce sourced from local grocery stores, and food cards for easy access to groceries. Additionally, we advocate for clients facing eviction and assist with utility shut-off notices, ensuring they receive the help they need in challenging times. Through our various programs, including the Holiday Sharing Program and Angel Tree, we strive to uplift our community and reach those who are homebound or disadvantaged. We invite residents in need to reach out and discover the support available within our network.
