L2ED & Children's Funding Project Host Ohio Children & Youth Fiscal Map Webinar

More than 90 community partners and residents logged on to the Children & Youth Fiscal Map Webinar this week to learn more about the dashboard and how to navigate this new statewide tool.

For the past year, Learn to Earn Dayton has partnered with Children’s Funding Project to develop a fiscal map for the state. The fiscal map documents and analyzes the various sources of funding that support programs and services for children and youth in Ohio. The map includes public dollars from federal and state sources and will aid state policymakers, regional partnerships, and advocates alike as it provides the first comprehensive view of existing funding streams.

“The new Ohio fiscal map we’ve developed in partnership with Children’s Funding Project  represents a commitment to both fiscal responsibility and data-driven decision-making,” said Learn to Earn Dayton CEO Stacy Schweikhart. “It provides unprecedented clarity and access to details on funding streams for children and youth, enabling us to move beyond simply dedicating funds and instead focus on getting the greatest return on investment. This tool is about making sure that every dollar is invested strategically and efficiently to deliver the positive outcomes our students and families deserve.”
