Highlights 

Symposium 2025
  • Symposium 2025 Anniversary
  • 2025 Maryland General Assembly Session Summary 
  • CFCC is proud of its advocacy efforts during Maryland’s 445th legislative session. We exceeded our goals and learned some very valuable lessons. Our activity also made an impact this session, with one bill that CFCC opposed not progressing and two bills that CFCC supported advancing to Gov. Wes Moore’s desk for signing.

You Can Make a Difference for TCP Families

CFCC’s Tackling Chronic Absenteeism Project (TCAP) operates in some of Baltimore’s most underserved neighborhoods, where the reasons students miss school can include a wide range of stressors—including violence, poverty, poor health, substance use, grief, homelessness, and unemployment, to name a few. In addition to delivering spring break food baskets to families each year, CFCC maintains an emergency fund to help students meet ongoing challenges that pop up throughout the year. Your contributions make this possible. Thank you for helping to support Baltimore City students and their families!
