it is a pilot project designed to create a model
children and family services system.
With the assistance of the Governor's Sub-
cabinet for Children, Youth, and Families, the
Project develops policies and procedures to coor-
dinate interagency planning and budgeting for all
State programs concerned with the needs of young
children and adolescents who are abused,
neglected, abandoned, emotionally disturbed,
handicapped, or pregnant. Coordination also will
extend to programs for young people who are
runaways or substance abusers, as well as those who
are dependent, homeless, habitually truant, ungov-
ernable, or delinquent. Additionally, coordination
will include programs for youth who are at-risk
from these conditions and for their families.
The Project will review State statutes and regula-
tions on children and family services and propose
changes to use all available government and private
resources for essential services for children and
families.
In selected areas, the Project will devise and
implement new local service delivery systems. It
then will develop plans for extending those systems
promptly throughout the State with the
Governor's approval.

SYSTEM PROGRAM

Thomas Merrick
333-1797

The Child and Adolescent Service System Pro-
gram was formed in 1989, when a three-year grant
from the National Institute for Mental Health was
awarded to the Office for Children, Youth, and
Families to establish services for emotionally dis-
turbed children and youth.
Working with families of children with emotion-
al disabilities, the Program helps develop and im-

plement a community-based system of care. The
Program increases parental involvement through
parent-professional collaboration efforts and, on
the Eastern Shore, develops a continuum of services
for emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.
