• THE CARROLL COUNTY FAMILY CENTER PROVIDES SERVICES TO EXPECTANT PARENTS, AND PARENTS WITH CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE. THE CENTER PROVIDES A COZY AND HOMELIKE ENVIRONMENT FOR PARENTS AND CHILDREN TO LEARN AND GROW TOGETHER. THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE CENTER IS TO ENSURE THAT YOUNG CHILDREN ARE HEALTHY - PHYSICALLY, DEVELOPMENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH A HIGH-QUALITY CHILD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM THAT FOCUSES ON EARLY LITERACY, NURTURING INTERACTIONS, AND LEARNING THROUGH PLAY. DEVELOPMENTAL SCREENINGS, IMMUNIZATION CHECKS, AND DAILY PACT (PARENTS AND CHILDREN TOGETHER) ACTIVITIES ARE KEY COMPONENTS OF THE PROGRAM. WHILE THE CHILDREN ENGAGE IN THEIR OWN SPECIAL PROGRAMMING, PARENTS ALSO RECEIVE SERVICES. THESE PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO INCREASE SELF-SUFFICIENCY, ENHANCE PARENTING SKILLS, AND PROVIDE QUALITY CASE MANAGEMENT. OUR ADULT EDUCATION PARTNER, CARROLL COMMUNITY COLLEGE, PROVIDES GED AND ESOL CLASSES FOR THE PARENTS. THE CENTER OFFERS PARENTING CLASSES USING THE EVIDENCE- BASED CURRICULUM, THE "NURTURING PARENT PROGRAM." OTHER CENTER-BASED SERVICES INCLUDE CASE MANAGEMENT, HEALTH CLASSES, JOB READINESS WORKSHOPS, PARENT LEADERSHIP TRAININGS, AND PEER SUPPORT ACTIVITIES. OUR MOST POPULAR ACTIVITIES INCLUDE MONTHLY AND SEASONAL "SPECIAL EVENTS." THIS YEAR WE ENJOYED THEMES LIKE "OLYMPIC GAMES", "DINOSAUR DAY", "INTERNATIONAL DAY- AND A FIELD TRIP TO DUTCH WONDERLAND. FOR PARENTS, WE FOCUSED ON BUILDING ESSENTIAL LIFE SKILLS SUCH AS COOKING AND COMPUTER LITERACY, AND WE LAUNCHED A PARENTING SUPPORT GROUP.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
