What Is the Connections: Children, Youth and Family Resources?
In Baltimore County, there are many community organizations with trained staff to answer questions and to help you find the information needed to make informed decisions. Connections: Children, Youth and Family Resources is a listing of those organizations that work with children, youth and their families. Connections has been designed to help you make a direct connection with the organization that can provide the most appropriate services for you. We hope you will find this directory is a useful self-help guide to the many services available in our County.
Connections includes entries for government agencies at the federal, state, local county and city levels as well as non-profit organizations. Businesses are included only if they offer services which are difficult for the consumer to locate. Businesses that are readily found in the yellow pages of phone directories or those that advertise their services widely are not included.
Connections is available through our home page at http://www.bcpl.info/ in the "Your Community" area. After clicking on Your Community, select Services Directories and the link to Connections: Children, Youth and Family Resources.
Baltimore County Public Library annually reviews the content for each organization in Connections and makes the necessary changes. All updates and changes are made on a continual revision basis. It is the responsibility of the organization to report to the Information Services Department (410-887-6124) of the Baltimore County Public Library any changes or inaccuracies that may occur in the interim.
While every effort is made to see that Connections is as accurate and current as possible, neither the Baltimore County Local Management Board nor the Baltimore County Public Library are responsible for the reliability of the information provided to it by the organizations.
The listing of an organization in Connections does not constitute an endorsement. It is up to the individual(s) needing such services to interview the prospective provider(s) prior to availing themselves of those services.
