 The Coalition is honoring exceptional parents in the community, while setting aside resources to create a new "Family Street Card."  With the sharp increase in family homelessness, Cuyahoga County needs a simple resource to distribute to families in danger of becoming homeless.  If you would like to honor a parent who has made a difference in your life, click the "Reduce Family Homelessness Form" icon below to complete the form.
