"At Crossroad, I knew I was in the right place."
On Giving Tuesday, Give the Gift of Life-Changing Health to Crossroad Patients
When you first meet Donna, an active, healthy, 69-year-old mother and grandmother, the words “heroin addict” do not come to mind. Yet Donna was an active user for three decades – and did time in a state penitentiary. When she found the courage to enter treatment to beat her addiction, she also found support and caring at Crossroad.
While Donna was living in transitional housing, another resident urged her to have a physical. Donna walked around the corner to the big blue building she would come to know as Crossroad. Years of abusing her body had taken its toll. Donna’s exam revealed that she had hepatitis C and diabetes. At her doctor’s urging, Donna took medication for hep C. It worked and today she is free of the disease. She also continues to receive counseling and encouragement from Crossroad’s diabetes educator.
“Crossroad was always supportive of the fact that I had stopped using. It was a God thing. I had asked God to help me stop. And I was glad Crossroad was faith based. I knew I was in the right place and right where I was supposed to be.”
Donna has just started a new job helping others overcome addiction by sharing her struggle with opioid use. “Thanks to Crossroad, I have a better quality of life,” she says. “I’ve been a patient here for 24 years. I love my doctor and my diabetes counselor. They explain things and motivate me through education – what the problem is and why I need to do something.”
As Donna approaches her 70th birthday, she says, “Today, I’m having a wonderful time with my family. They’re proud of me. With Crossroad’s help, I’ll never go back to how I was living.”

You Help Us Create a Medical Home for Our Patients
Crossroad creates a “medical home” where our patients have easy access to medical, behavioral and other health care services. Without Crossroad, more than 12,500 children and adults would not receive the high-quality and comprehensive health care they find here, regardless of their ability to pay.
You Transform Lives When You Support Crossroad
Your support is the reason we can serve thousands of patients like Donna. For more than 25 years, we have provided health care to our patients while building deep and enduring relationships. Living in poverty, they face complex needs beyond the physical – like lack of food, transportation and secure housing. Through a bond of trust, our staff change lives by treating illnesses and connecting patients to services that help them overcome barriers to health care.
Your support also helps bridge our funding gap. To meet the complex needs of our patients, Crossroad must raise additional funds. That’s because the cost of their care exceeds the payment we receive for their treatment. Your generous past support helped us care for more patients than ever. We ask that you continue to stand with us in our mission to provide affordable health care to a vulnerable population.

![]() November Is American Diabetes Month
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of disability and death in the United States. It can cause blindness, nerve damage, kidney disease, and other health problems if it’s not controlled. One in 10 Americans have diabetes — that’s more than 30 million people. And another 84 million adults in the United States are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The good news? People who are at high risk for type 2 diabetes can lower their risk if they make healthy changes. Examples of healthy changes include eating healthy, getting more physical activity, and losing weight. Take Steps to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes You can do a lot to prevent or delay getting type 2 diabetes, including:

Take Steps to Lower Infant Mortality in Hamilton CountyAt Crossroad, we are fortunate to be able to provide prenatal care to our patients and help reduce the high infant mortality rate in our city. Hamilton County, unfortunately, has one of the highest infant mortality rates in the United States. In 2018, 92 babies in Hamilton County died before they reached their first birthday. There is also a large racial disparity in our infant mortality rate -- black babies have a three times higher risk of death than white and Hispanic babies. Black women in Hamilton County who are interested in finding solutions to the higher black infant mortality rate are invited to participate in Queens Village. This is a community of powerful black women of childbearing age that come together to relax and take care of one another. They meet the first Wednesday of each month from 6 to 8 p.m. at the McKie Recreation Center (1655 Chase Avenue, Cincinnati 45223). |
Patient Input Benefits Crossroad
For more than a year, Crossroad's Patient-Family Advisory Council (PFAC) has been meeting at our Over-the-Rhine site. The council (pictured above) includes patients and staff who gather monthly to discuss ways to improve our health center -- for example, starting walk-in hours for established patients at OTR and making new patient paperwork easier to navigate. Kudos to Dr. Christine Furgason for leading this project, as well as to staff who regularly attend the meetings. Particular thanks go to our amazing group of patients who come each month and give us valuable feedback on what we can do better. Following our success at OTR, we have developed PFACs at West and Harrison.
