After 13 years as Program Director of the FITT Center, Kay Connors is stepping down to devote more time to her work on early childhood mental health. We wish her great success.

In 2008, FITT Center collaborated with the Maryland Coalition of Families for Children’s Mental Health (MD Coalition) and Youth MOVE-Maryland to include family and youth voice into the Center’s outreach, awareness/training activity and intervention and product development.

Breakthrough Series Collaborative Final Report

The Trauma-Informed Resilient City for Children and Families Breakthrough Series Collaborative (BSC) began in June 2015 and formally concluded with a reunion meeting on November 15, 2016. It included nine teams, representing a range of “formal” and “informal” organizations across Baltimore.

Families dealing with trauma experiences often benefit from counseling services to help with healing. But with so many things to consider, it can be hard to decide if now is the right time or if it would be better to wait for some time to pass.
