Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Community Fundraiser
Different unique and fun ways to raise money to be able to financially help our families get items to care for their families, such as baby wipes, van lifters, medical equipment and other items insurances will not pay for. We also want to start pampering our parents.
Self Care
Self care will be focused on our parents/caregivers of those with the disability. Its important that they take care of themselves because if they are not properly taking care of them then they can't properly take care of their loved ones. This includes mental, physical and emotionally.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Their Voice of Greater Cincinnati mission is to uplift, inspire and support families affected by cerebral palsy. Our goal is to continue to run a successful respite program with the support from grants and our fundraising efforts. We have already served over 7 families and provided over 700 hours of respite for caregivers to help them get that much needed mental and self-care that they need to take care of self.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
By connecting with other organizations and companies such as Cincinnati Children's Perlman center and May We Help we will be able to reach more families and let them know that they have an organization that is here for them. Also, by continuing to apply for grants and have fundraisers so that we can have enough money to fund the program and not have to stop it.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We will continue to reach out to families, organizations, news media, market and advertise. We also have a support group every week where we share resources. Researching grants and will continue to fundraise to help with our efforts!
