Founded in 1972, Interfaith Works helps people lift themselves up out of poverty through 14 integrated programs organized into three service areas to prevent, stabilize and empower. Altogether, Interfaith Works serves over 16,000 people annually. Our goal is for Montgomery County to have the lowest poverty rate in Maryland.
