OUR STRATEGIES

The Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland engages in many strategies to build our community’s capacity to help people overcome the challenges of poverty. These strategies include: grantmaking, evaluation, collaboration, convenings, and policy.

The Foundation uses all of these strategies for its Initiatives: comprehensive, longer term investments where we would like to make a larger impact. Currently, these Initiatives are Health Literacy, Supportive Housing, and the Collaboration for Ministry Initiative.

The Foundation also is cultivating a more in-depth approach for reducing health and educational disparities in Cleveland’s Central Neighborhood. This program area will be guided by a community input strategy to assure that our priorities align with the needs of that community.
