SC Ministry Foundation Grant Helps Keep Price Hill Kids Lead Free
Crossroad is pleased to receive a generous grant from SC Ministry Foundation. This funding helps us make a difference in the health of young children in Price Hill through checking lead levels in all our pediatric patients. Because we focus on preventive measures, and treat those youngsters with lead poisoning, we are encouraged to see dangerous lead levels fall for children in Price Hill and across Cincinnati. Many families in the Price Hill neighborhood live in older homes with lead-based paint, making it especially important to test these children early and often.
Many Price Hill families are also low income, and covered by Medicaid. However, few health care providers in Cincinnati accept Medicaid, making our services even more critical for this vulnerable population. This funding also supports expanded access for our patients through Saturday hours at our western Hills site and the addition of more health care providers.
Thank you, SC Ministry Foundation, for helping us keep our youngest patients safe and healthy!

Who Is John Perkins? And Why Is He Important to Crossroad?
When Crossroad founder Dr. Chuck Schubert met John Perkins during his fourth year of medical school, John’s message inspired Chuck and other members of the Sycamore Street Fellowship to launch Crossroad in service to residents of the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood. John Perkins didn’t have it easy. Born in 1930, his mother died of starvation when he was just seven months old. Abandoned by his father, he was raised by his extended family, who worked as sharecroppers. Yet John Perkins, a third-grade dropout, eventually became a minister, and inspired thousands with his vision for ministry in low-income communities. Read more here Dr. Rita Girard Joins Crossroad
