Garrett County Local Management Board

Public Group active %s

The Local Management Board (LMB) was established during the mid-1990’s in an effort to change the way services were provided to children and families in their communities. The LMB identifies priorities and targets resources within the Garrett County community with a focus to increase local authority to plan, implement, and monitor children and family services.

LMBs serve as the coordinator of collaboration for child and family services. They bring together local child-serving agencies, local child providers, clients of services, families, and other community representatives to empower local stakeholders in addressing the needs of and setting priorities for their communities.

Strategies prioritized and funded by the Garrett County Local Management Board are aligned with Governor Moore’s Engaging Neighborhoods, Organizations, Unions, Governments, and Households (ENOUGH) Initiative. The ENOUGH Initiative is a whole-government, whole-community approach aimed at tackling the root causes of poverty for Maryland residents. There are four ENOUGH Result Areas:
– High Quality Childcare and Education
– Healthy Families*
– Economically Secure Families
– Safe and Thriving Communities*

Vision: Assure the availability of quality care, service, and education through a collective voice for children, youth, and families.
Mission: Promote a stable, safe, and healthy environment for children, youth, and families through local partners.
