Beech Brook proudly awarded 2025's Community Partnership Award to Ohio Children's Alliance on September 25, 2025 at Beech Brook's 173rd Annual Meeting. The Community Partnership Award honors organizations whose collaboration and commitment make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families.

This year’s recipient, Ohio Children’s Alliance, exemplifies true partnership through its investments of resources, expertise, and vision.

Ohio Children’s Alliance has strengthened Beech Brook’s Family Center and extended its community reach through initiatives such as:

  • Launching Family Fun Day, bringing joy and connection to hundreds of families.
  • Supporting Beech Brook’s Family Corner Facebook group, giving parents ongoing resources and support.
  • Providing DC:0–5 training for early childhood staff, enhancing trauma-informed care for the youngest children.

Through the Child & Family Health Collaborative of Ohio, governed by the Alliance, Beech Brook also participates in statewide programs including respite care for families, Bridges support for emancipated foster youth, and a clinically integrated network serving over 60,000 clients across Ohio.

“Ohio Children’s Alliance exemplifies what it means to be a true partner—responsive, generous, and deeply committed to ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive,” said Tom Royer, President & CEO of Beech Brook.

Accepting the award on behalf of Ohio Children's Alliance was Mark Mecum, Ohio Children's Alliance's CEO.
