family support

Family Support Centers are here to help parents and other caregivers with the challenges of raising a child. The free, comprehensive services are for children from birth to three years of age and their parents. The Centers promote children’s healthy development through activities for parents and children as well as connect families to a solid network of lasting peer and professional support. Funding for the network of Family Support Centers is provided by the Maryland State Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, private foundations, corporations and individuals.
