To our HVIP, CVI, and Change Agent communities — we see and honor the work you do daily in Baltimore. You sit at hospital bedsides, interrupt cycles of violence, and support survivors and families in unimaginable ways. You listen, support, and guide repeatedly. Your commitment is powerful. And it can also be exhausting.

The ROAR Center is thrilled to launch a Wellness Series created just for you — the frontline staff and change agents in our field who keep showing up for our survivors. Over the next several months, join us for engaging workshops, classes, and experiences focused on preventing burnout, strengthening mental and physical health, and restoring your overall wellbeing.

It’s your turn to stop and take care of yourself. We need it. Most sessions are FREE, but registration is required for each session. Check out our wellness workshops and activities, and join us!
