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*

*Denotes Result area prioritized by Garrett County

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.

  • Learning Beyond the Classroom- LBTC is a program operated by the Garrett County Judy Center for families with children ages birth to five who live within one of the communities visited by the LBTC bus. The program provides resources and activities for youth and families. 
Community Support Strategies:
  • ACEs/HOPE Education- providing funding to train local professionals in the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences (HOPE) curriculum. The newly trained professionals will provide training and education to families and other local professionals to spread awareness, knowledge, and skills. 
  • Garrett Resource Guide Promotion- The Garrett Resource Guide is an online tool that provides contact and service information for a large variety of resources in Garrett County. The GCLMB aims to increase awareness of this tool.  
  • Community Baby Showers- The Community Baby Showers are hosted by the Garrett County Judy Center and provide necessary resources and tangible support items to new and expectant mothers. 
  • Power Up Parent Conference- The Power Up Parent Conference is hosted by the Garrett County Judy Center and provides educational parenting workshops, a night’s stay at the WISP Resort, and meals for parents free of charge to families as well as local resource connection
