ABHMS, also known as the American Baptist Home Mission Societies, has been dedicated to healing and transforming communities in the United States and Puerto Rico for nearly two centuries. Founded in April 1832, ABHMS carries on the mission of its predecessor, The American Baptist Home Mission Society, with a focus on domestic mission work. ABHMS offers a wide range of ministries, including education and scholarships, publications, and resources.

They partner with American Baptists to promote Christian faith, cultivate Christ-centered leaders and disciples, and bring healing and transformation to communities across the United States and Puerto Rico. One of the main focuses of ABHMS is addressing food insecurity within the country. They work closely with organizations like Bread for the World to combat this issue.

Additionally, ABHMS mobilizes in response to natural disasters, providing support and aid to communities affected by devastating wildfires, flooding, and other emergencies. Through their Center for Continuous Learning, ABHMS provides practical mission education to empower individuals, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to transform churches and communities. They also have a vibrant online community called ministrElife, where ministry professionals can network and learn from each other.
