Connecting for Kids (CFK) provides resources, support and community to families in Northeast Ohio who have concerns about their child. We serve all families, including children with and without diagnoses.
Embrace the Pace
Join Connecting for Kids for an inclusive race for every pace! The inaugural Embrace the Pace 5K, one-mile run/walk/roll and kids’ race welcomes participants of all ages and abilities.
Ask Us is a free 30-minute call with another parent who understands what it’s like to be concerned about a child. Our Family Resource Specialists will also give you resources tailored to your family.
Struggling with tantrums, hitting or other challenging behaviors? Are your child’s behaviors leaving you feeling frustrated and unsure of what to do? Join us for an interactive, question-driven program with Ochanya McRoberts-Wells, MEd.
