On May 6, 2013, The Coordinating Center fulfilled its life long dream of having a new Central Maryland headquarters. The new building will allow The Center to better support the people we serve through expanded services and more efficient use of resources. Expanded services are focused particularly on older adults who wish to stay in their own homes as they age, and on families of young children with complex needs struggling to provide their children with the best opportunities in these changing and challenging times.

The new headquarters is located at 8531 Veterans Highway, 3rd Floor, Millersville, MD 21108. For more information, call 410-987-1048.
