Endowing Our Community's Future

Supporting families with children is one of the current needs in Frederick County as determined by the 2018 Human Needs Assessment Report. Many of today's families with children are in a precarious position facing an uncertain future.

What will be our most pressing needs as a community in ten, twenty, fifty years and more? Homelessness, substance use disorder, parents who can't feed their children, lack of public education? It's impossible to know, yet preparedness is key.

What is possible is that you can make a difference and be part of finding solutions that ensure Frederick County's future is bright. You can be the influence for change.

The organization Children of Incarcerated Parents Partnership was founded several years ago to help a special group of children in Frederick County, Maryland. Started by one person, it quickly grew to be an organization supported by ‘mid managers’ from a variety of non-profit agencies in Frederick, Maryland. Our belief is that children of incarcerated parents are a group of children who lack a voice of their own. Our work and our mission is to give them such a voice in the community, in the schools, and in their family. We are proud to say that we are now an official non-profit organization.
