SPECIAL NOTE: In Baltimore County, there are many community organizations with trained staff to answer questions and to help find the information needed to make informed decisions. The Connections: Children, Youth and Family Resources Directory 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 the directory 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 who advertise their services widely are not included. Selection of organizations for inclusion in the Directory is reviewed by the Baltimore County Local Management Board.

All organizations listed in the Directory are contacted annually by the Baltimore County Public Library to review their data and make necessary changes. All updates and changes are made on a continual revision basis to the master version of Connections located on the World Wide Web at: Baltimore County Public Library - Text Version in the "Your Community" section under Family Resources. It is the responsibility of the organization to report to the Information Services Department at 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 the Connections does not constitute an endorsement. It is up to the individuals needing such services to interview the prospective providers prior to availing themselves of those services.

For a much more comprehensive listing of organizations, see the Baltimore County Public Library's Community Information Database, available both on the Web and at all Baltimore County Public libraries.
