Child & Family Stability Meeting Basic Needs Special Programs

The Foundation continued to invest in innovative, timely public policy efforts resulting from the ever-changing government landscape in Cuyahoga County, Columbus and Washington, D.C. A primary focus was support to adopt the state Medicaid expansion authorized under the Affordable Care Act and to develop robust outreach and enrollment support for tens of thousands of Greater Clevelanders and other Ohioans newly eligible for health care coverage. Support continued for state and local early childhood and juvenile justice reforms. Significant funding and staff engagement focused on developing social innovation financing mechanisms, particularly a county-based Pay for Success initiative. Grant funding continued to emphasize identifying, testing and scaling evidence-based policies and programs. Human services grantmaking totaled $2,621,589.
