Protecting Our Future: The Cuyahoga County Child Fatality Report
The Cuyahoga County Child Fatality Review (CFR) Board is a group of dedicated professionals committed to reducing child fatalities and improving the safety and the well-being of children in our community. The Cuyahoga County Child Fatality Review Board brings together professionals from various fields including healthcare, law enforcement, social services and public health to review the causes and circumstances surrounding a child’s death. By learning the story of the child’s life, and circumstances of their death, the CFR board aims to uncover any challenges faced by the child, any systems they interacted with and risk factors that may have contributed to their death. The goal of CFR is to use these collective findings to improve policies, programs and interventions, and develop recommendations to prevent future child fatalities.

Protect Your Electronic Benefits
The Cuyahoga County Department of Health and Human Services warns residents receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (SNAP) that electronic benefit or card “skimming” continues to be reported across the County.
Card skimming occurs when a device is placed over a card reader to copy information contained on the card. Once the card information is copied, benefits can be taken electronically from the card by criminals. There has been a significant increase in electronically stolen SNAP benefits reported recently.
Cuyahoga Job and Family Services encourages customers to take proactive measures to protect SNAP benefits from skimming.
