TuTTie’s Place is a Maryland-based nonprofit that operates residential services for adolescent males in foster care, with a broader aim of supporting youth ages 14–21 through five group homes. Founded in 1996 and governed by a nine-member board, the organization emphasizes a holistic approach to wellness, addressing physical, mental, and emotional needs through activities such as meditation and other self-healing practices, and it maintains an on-site labyrinth for walking meditation. The program seeks to keep sibling groups together in foster care and to foster discipline, commitment, and excellence while encouraging educational achievement and an interest in higher education. Located in Baltimore, TuTTie’s Place identifies as a residential wellness center that focuses on self-soothing and self-supervision as alternatives to psychotropic medications, reflecting its emphasis on mind-body-energy well-being. The organization operates within the civic and social services sector and serves youth by providing a structured living environment intended to promote responsible and accountable behavior.
