Come listen to Joseph Jones talk about his entrepreneurial journey and what prompted him to take action to address one of the leading problems facing Baltimore and cities across our nation.
Since its founding in 1999, the Center for Urban Families has remained at the front-line of addressing some of our city’s most pressing issues, including poverty, unemployment, father-absence and family disintegration. CFUF maintains 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.
