Local Management Board
The Local Management Board (LMB) fosters the efficient delivery of government and private resources by developing an interagency system of care that addresses the wellbeing of children, youth and families in Baltimore County. The LMB utilizes the following strategies:
- Identify and prioritize critical issues affecting children, youth and families in Baltimore County
- Select evidence-based and best practice programs to address prioritized issues
- Develop the financial resources to create and sustain selected programs
- Build an interagency service delivery system to support program implementation
- Provide ongoing program management and evaluation to ensure positive outcomes for Baltimore County children and families
The County Executive appoints members to the LMB that represent both public and private interests and possess expertise on child, youth, and family-related issues. The LMB utilizes a Results-Based Accountability model in establishing and prioritizing efforts to improve child well-being in the jurisdiction. Specifically, decisions are made in the context of what we are trying to accomplish, data, partner needs and critical strategies. By consistently posing these questions, the LMB and its partners will assure that resources are directed to areas of need.
