The Franciscan Center is one of Baltimore City’s finest organizations. They provide the people of Baltimore with essential services including meals, clothing, emergency health services, counseling and training. 

The Center approached the Neighborhood Design Center in Baltimore to help them redesign and rethink their existing facade and entry to better serve the community. RAD worked together with the Neighborhood Design Center along with several other design partners to propose an updated facade and entrance to reflect the Franciscan Center’s mission to provide their community with a safe space that treats them with the respect and dignity they deserve.
