COMMUNITY-BUILDING PROGRAMS
FutureHeights invites Cleveland Heights residents to participate in community-building
programs this fall. The next Neighborhood Leadership Workshop Series begins September
19, and the fall 2021 deadline for Neighborhood Mini-Grants is September 15.
The programs, made possible through the support of the City of Cleveland Heights, the
Cedars Legacy Fund, and the McGinity Family Foundation, and FutureHeights members,
support residents as they develop leadership skills and initiate projects that add to the quality
of life in the Heights.
The Neighborhood Leadership Workshop Series will
take place on Sunday afternoons from 3 to 6 pm on a
bi-weekly basis from September 19 to November 14.
With the purpose of providing access to resources,
knowledge, technical assistance, and support to
community leaders, the five-session series will cover topics
such as Researching Your Neighborhood, Asset-Based
Community Development, and Understanding Cleveland
Heights’ Cultural History. Sessions will be held in-person
in accordance with State of Ohio Covid-19 Responsible
Safety Protocols.
Applications for the Neighborhood Leadership Workshop Series will open on July 15,
and the deadline to apply is August 31. All Cleveland Heights residents are invited and
encouraged to apply.
The deadline to apply for the FutureHeights Neighborhood Mini-Grants Program is
September 15. Since 2015, the program has provided funding
of up to $1,000 to grassroots or neighborhood groups who
have creative solutions, projects, or programs that build on
and enhance existing assets in their neighborhoods. To date,
the program has provided a total of $36,838 to 57 projects in
Cleveland Heights.
Funded projects range from gardening and beautification to
community and social services. “Projects are driven by residents
and neighborhood groups who know their neighborhoods’ needs
and assets intimately,” said Deanna Bremer Fisher, FutureHeights executive director. “In 2021,
we’d love to support more projects led by new voices, such as teens, young adults and those
under 35.”
Residents who have ideas for improving their neighborhood are
invited to apply for a grant. The program is guided by a grant-making
committee comprising of seven residents with a history of community
involvement. The committee reviews and makes all grant decisions.
FutureHeights believes in the Assets-Based Community
Development approach, which seeks to build upon a neighborhood’s
strengths. Its many activities include housing rehabilitation,
neighborhood planning and creative place making. FutureHeights
publishes the Heights Observer community newspaper and hosts the
annual Heights Music Hop (see page 6).
All Cleveland Heights residents are welcome and encouraged to
become involved in FutureHeights’ mission to create a vibrant and
sustainable future for our community. Learn more and download an
application at www.futureheights.org/programs/community-
building-programs/. Contact FutureHeights at 216-320-1423 or
