Lead Safe Child Care Pilot

The Lead Safe Cleveland Coalition, a public-private partnership managed by Enterprise, Starting Point and Cleveland Clinic launched a new Lead Safe Child Care Pilot, the first-of-its-kind in the nation to provide child care providers with grant funds and services to address and eliminate lead hazards. The program, funded by Cleveland Clinic, is an urgent response to eliminate lead poisoning in Cleveland children, who are four times more likely to have elevated blood lead levels than the national average.

Funder Spotlight

The George Gund Foundation

The George Gund Foundation provides multi-year, targeted support to Enterprise for ongoing and emerging programs. The Foundation was an early and ongoing funder of the Lead Safe Cleveland Coalition, is an ongoing supporter of our state and local policy efforts, and most recently awarded support to increase homeownership and prevent eviction on the southeast side of Cleveland through our Make It Home program.
