We’re at the Ohio Statehouse advocating for housing support for pregnant women and new families. A safe home is the foundation for a healthy start. Let’s ensure every Ohio family has what they need to thrive! #HousingFirst #OHInfantVitality.

All Ohio families deserve to thrive! Today, we stand with @firstyearcle, @baby1stnetwork, @cradlecincy, and @celebrateone_columbus to ensure that housing support, diapers, and the passage of House Bill 7 are prioritized for our communities. #OhioAdvocacy #OHInfantVitality
Every Ohio family deserves the support to thrive. Today we’re advocating for policies that put housing, diapers, and
family well-being at the forefront. Legislators, let’s make this a priority! #OHInfantVitality #OhioAdvocacy

House Bill 7 is a game-changer for Ohio families! We're here to ensure it passes in the Senate and brings necessary
resources to families across the state. Let’s put families first! #OHInfantVitality #OhioLegislature #HouseBill7

Diapers are essential, not a luxury. We're pushing to expand diaper provisions for Ohio families. No parent should
have to choose between food and diapers. Let’s support our families! #BasicNeeds #FamiliesThrive

Baby's first year is an exciting and busy time. There are many things to know and consider and we have resources to assist new parents. To learn more about Safe Sleep, Breastfeeding, and Developmental Milestones, and other considerations visit our website: FirstYearCleveland.org

In September, @FirstYearCLE partnered with an amazing team from @cwru's Student Run Health Clinic to collect diapers and donations in support of three local service providers, Diaper Bank of Greater Cleveland, Goods Bank NEO and Womankind. The drive collected over 6,500 diapers!

Our quarterly Community Meetings are for everyone who cares about healthy families. We meet at TriC Jerry Sue Thornton Center–next 11/2/2023. Please see below for additional information and to register. Save the dates for our future meetings: 2/1, 5/1, and 8/1 from 9am -11am.
(1/4) FYC and partners from across Ohio Baby's 1st Network, Ohio Collaborative to Prevent Infant Mortality, CelebrateOne and Cradle Cincinnati, hosted our first ever Infant Vitality Awareness Days Sept 12-13 in Columbus.
(3/4) FYC then met with 17 individual legislators to build/advance relationships and to advocate for the passage of HB7 and respectful healthcare.
FYC advocates for the broad support of Diaper Banks statewide to build capacity AND the administration of a Medicaid waiver in Ohio to provide coverage for diapers.
