At one time or another, we all may have problems we feel unable to handle alone. Often just finding straight answers to questions can be difficult.

Our family, friends, and relatives are frequently able to help, but they are not always around. Sometimes our questions are such that we feel more comfortable talking with someone who doesn't know us.

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. This directory is a partial listing of those organizations. It 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 Connections: Children, Youth and Family Resources a useful self-help guide to the many services available in our county.

Baltimore County Local Management Board

The purpose of the Baltimore County Local Management Board is to maximize the efficient and effective delivery of government and private resources to families and children so that they may lead self-sufficient, healthy, and safe lives. The members of the Local Management Board, who are appointed by the County Executive, include residents of Baltimore County and representatives from the various public agencies and private organizations that offer programs for children and their families. Agencies represented include the Baltimore County Public Library, the Baltimore County Public Schools, the Baltimore County Departments of Health, Recreation and Parks, and Social Services, the Office of Community Conservation, Office of Workforce Development, the Police Department, and the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services.

Connections, a resource directory for children, youth and families of Baltimore County, is a project of the Baltimore County Local Management Board and the Baltimore County Public Library.
