Resurrection Sandtown is a transformative, community-driven initiative dedicated to revitalizing the Sandtown-Winchester neighborhood in West Baltimore. Established in 2016 by Ames Shalom Community, Inc., a Community Development Corporation (CDC), the Resurrection Sandtown redevelopment project aims to address systemic challenges such as poverty, housing shortages, and limited access to essential services by fostering a holistic, inclusive environment for all residents.

The project’s mission is to create affordable housing, foster new job opportunities, and strengthen Sandtown by bringing much needed services and supporting holistic opportunities and multi-service collaborations.
