Chase-Lloyd House

The Chase-Lloyd House, located at 22 Maryland Avenue in Annapolis, Maryland, is a historic institution with a mission to support women facing hardships and provide safe housing. Established in 1889 by Hester Chase Ridout, the Chase Home has been operating as a non-profit organization for over 130 years. While no longer a boarding house for women, the institution now focuses on providing offsite assistance to housing insecure women in Anne Arundel County.

With the recent expiration of eviction moratoriums and increasing housing costs, many women are at risk of homelessness. The Chase Home, with the support of donors and community partners, has implemented programs such as the Eviction Prevention Program to help prevent eviction and support women in need. Through partnerships with organizations like Community Legal Services and Arundel Community Development Services, the Chase Home has been able to make a positive impact on the lives of women in the community.

Financial hardships, job loss, illness, and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have all contributed to housing insecurity for many women in Anne Arundel County. The Chase Home's commitment to preventing eviction and providing support to these women is crucial in ensuring they have a safe place to call home.
