On this episode, Dave Schmidt sits down with Dr. Rachel Mandel to discuss the important work being done through Family Connects Frederick County, a free program available to families throughout Frederick County that provides support and resources for new mothers and their newborns.

They explore the critical early weeks and months after birth, the benefits of in-home care and support services, and why access to these resources can make a lasting difference for both parents and children. Dr. Mandel also shares how Family Connects helps ensure families receive the care, guidance, and community connections they need, regardless of their financial situation.
