The Board of Child Care is a very safe place for you or your children. If your child is being neglected, abused, or any thing else that you know is wrong, and you want them to be safe here is your chance! At B.C.C. , there are both male and female cottages. Put him/her in a safe place where he/she will not be harmed in any way. They will love it here! He/she will have there own room, and their own advocate. An advocate is a person who will always be there for you, and help you out with what ever it may be. Please, trust me on this. I've been there and done that myself! Your childwill be treated just as he/she would at home! They'd have to do chores, and yes they do get paid! Depending on what level your child is on, will decide on how much allowance he/she may get. They take you P.O. shopping )clothes shopping) when ever you need new clothes or they just do not fit your child any more! I am like an expert on how all of this works! Trust me! If you were to compare Dulaney house (an all girls group home) to B.C.C. you just don't want to know...........okay I'll tell you! You'd pick B.C.C. with out a doupt! That also includes no seconds thoughts. ...read more
