Center for Urban Families

The Center for Urban Families (CFUF) is an independent 501(c) 3 organization located in Baltimore, MD. CFUF specializes in servicing the needs of Baltimore’s most hard-to-reach populations, including the formerly incarcerated, those with a prior history of substance abuse, and low-income, non-custodial fathers. Since 1999, we've maintained an unwavering focus on addressing the key challenges of Baltimore’s urban families by working to connect fathers to their children, creating opportunities for economic and financial security through work, and providing access to other key interventions and supportive services. Our core mission is to strengthen urban communities by helping fathers and families achieve stability and economic success. All In is the Center for Urban Families’ comprehensive strategy to accelerate social and economic opportunity and advocate for policies that promote equity and racial justice. Leveraging 20 years of positive impact and applied learnings, the All In strategy targets two critical areas: chronic unemployment and family instability. The approach links individual accountability, person-centered case management, and supportive networks with workforce development training, education, and civic engagement. All In dismantles poverty and builds long-term social and economic prosperity that results in brighter futures for our members, their families, and the communities in which they live. CFUF works with 1,400 men and women each year through comprehensive program offerings that are designed to help individuals and families attain and sustain economic self-sufficiency. Our core initiatives include: - The Baltimore Responsible Fatherhood Project (BRFP) - STRIVE Baltimore – STRIVE Future Leaders – Back to Business - Couples Advancing Together - Alumni Services - The Practitioner's Leadership Institute (PLI)
