AGM in the Community

Baltimore is AGM’s hometown. We take care of our own by supporting several not-for-profit and civic groups that help those in need. 

AGM’s founder and CEO, Margaret Allen, is a long-time Baltimore resident. She is active in a number of organizations, including more than ten years of service in various roles on the Foundation Board of Sheppard Pratt Health System — the nation’s largest private, nonprofit provider of mental health care. With services ranging from crisis care to residential and day services, developmental disability services, job training, and help with housing and homelessness, Sheppard Pratt serves more than 70,000 people annually. The birthplace of occupational therapy, Sheppard Pratt is also a leader in research on mood disorders, autism and developmental disorders, and suicide behaviors and prevention. 
   
Founded in 1853 by Moses Sheppard, Sheppard Pratt grew out of the Quaker traditions of social justice and caring for individuals in need. The organization remains true to its Quaker heritage and values of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, and equality.

“Sheppard Pratt is working to bring mental health care into the mainstream of health care in our community,” said Margaret. “It is a tremendous resource for all of us, with mental health care available in hospitals, clinics, schools, and other locations throughout Maryland. I am proud to serve on the Board.”

While our work spans the United States, AGM remains committed to making Baltimore a great place to call home.
