- Description:
Family Connections Baltimore is a program of the University of Maryland School of Social Work Ruth H. Young Center for Families and Children The program develops, implements, and tests community-based family strengthening services that empower families who are vulnerable to achieve safety, well-being, and stability. Clients collaborate with staff members to identify family and community risk and protective factors and develop a plan for services tailored to meet their specific needs. Because many people have experienced traumas our assessments, service plans, and intervention strategies are trauma-informed. The program partners with families to help them address the following needs: - food, clothing and housing
- education
- employment and training
- health and mental health
- substance abuse
- family violence
- parent education and support
- child behavior
- trauma exposure
- challenges related to grandparents raising grandchildren Services offered by the program include:
- comprehensive family assessment
- service planning
- crisis intervention
- emergency assistance-provision of concrete services
- individualized outcomes based services
- individual, family and group counseling
- advocacy
- case management
Family Connections Baltimore works in cooperation with numerous agencies, schools, health care providers and the Department of Social Services. There is a strong connection to many School of Social Work endeavors to collaborate in providing services and education opportunities for Baltimore Community residents and stakeholders. In particular the Title IVE Public Education for Child Welfare Program preparing graduate social work students for family centered practice in public child welfare agencies. While community-based services continue to be the program's core focus, we are also committed to educating social workers and other professionals to use evidence-based models of practice that include attention to their own professional development and self-care. Central to this endeavor is addressing the demand of working with families exposed to multiple traumas over time. Since its inception in 1996 our staff and trainees have won numerous awards and prizes and the program has been continuously funded through government and foundation grants and contracts, as well as private donations.

- Description:
For over 20 years, the Family Welfare Research and Training Group, led by Dr. Catherine E. Born, has partnered with the Maryland Department of Human Resources and with local agencies in welfare and child support research, training, and policy development.Our focus is helping management, front-line staff, legislators, and advocates meet the many challenges associated with implementing and evaluating welfare and child support reform. We provide research, training and information services that shape and enhance policies and program for Maryland's families. In addition, we are active participants in policy workgroups, task forces, and legislative hearings.
The Research Team's primarily activity is leveraging administrative data to provide empirically-based, policy-relevant information for decision-makers in the welfare and child support fields. In addition to a number of smaller child support and welfare projects, the Group produces two report series which provide a barometer of welfare reform in Maryland: Life After Welfare, a longitudinal, nationally-acclaimed study of welfare leavers; and Life on Welfare, a series of studies focusing on the circumstances of special populations in the current welfare caseload.
Our Paternity Affidavit Information Reporting Unit (PAIR) manages the state's voluntary paternity acknowledgement database and provides a valuable Faxback service to local workers who need to obtain copies of affidavits quickly.
Our Policy and Skills Training Team (PSTT) provides professional classroom training on a variety of pertinent topics for both state and local staff involved with welfare reform.
