Child & Family Stability Meeting Basic Needs Special Programs
The Foundation continued to seek opportunities for investment in innovative public policy efforts resulting from the evolving government landscape in Cuyahoga County, Columbus and Washington D.C and from the inevitable impact of the painfully slow economic upturn. Reflecting these realities, our funding focused on evidence-based alternatives to current public investments, significant federal grant opportunities and novel social service financing mechanisms. Grant highlights included supporting system reforms and public investment in the health care, hunger relief, early childhood, juvenile justice and adolescent reproductive health systems. Human services grantmaking totaled $4,660,299.
