The MDAAP initiates and supports advocacy efforts and programs and partnerships with public and private agencies that respond to the needs of Maryland's children and adolescents to address focus areas including: social determinants of health and systemic barriers to access; foster care; children with special health care needs; disaster preparedness; early childhood interventions; emotional and mental health; safe and resilient communities; immunizations; injury and poison prevention; oral health; school and community-based health; and the prevention of gun violence.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
