Welcome to our house

Opportunity Ministries and our Mary’s Lamb Women with Children Program is a 501 C-3 nonprofit with a mission – to provide safe, drugfree, and affordable housing to people overcoming substance use disorders. Our goal for each participant is a full transition into an independent and joyfully sober life. Opportunity Ministries was founded in 2005 and has since grown to encompass several transitional homes across Anne Arundel County. Each of our facilities are certified by the Maryland Certification of Recovery Residences (MCORR). At Opportunity Ministries, we are committed to every participant, regardless of financial status. For this reason, we partner with both our county and state, enabling us to offer our services to the most vulnerable in our community. Graduates of our program have gone on to become business owners, licensed professional counselors, leaders in their fields of work, and recovery professionals giving back to our community.

As Opportunity Ministries grows, it is our goal to consistently adapt and improve our programs. In the past year, we have integrated financial training events for participants through a State Opioid Response (SOR) grant, which was awarded to the Maryland Department of Health-Behavioral Health Administration (MDH-BHA), then onto the Anne Arundel County Department of Health (AACDOH). Our newest program is Mary’s Lamb, a one-of-a-kind facility to support the transitional needs of women and their
dependent children.
