"It is difficult to discuss human services in our region without immediately considering the critical role of United Way," Peter Bloch, Leadership Council of Human Services Executives board president said as he presented the Council's first Leadership Excellence Award to United Way of Greater Cincinnati."While United Way has wonderful name recognition throughout the region, rarely is it recognized publicly for its critical role in making our communities a better place to live.The Leadership Council of Human Services Executives is very proud to do so today and to present its first Leadership Excellence Award to United Way of Greater Cincinnati," said Bloch, president and CEO, Jewish Vocational Service, a United Way agency partner."As a planning organization, as a fundraising organization, as a capacity building organization, as a convener, partner, collaborator and leader, United Way has demonstrated an abiding commitment to improving lives for more than nine decades," he said. "The development of the Agenda for Community Impact over the past few years has required extraordinary vision, leadership, and capacity building, as once again, United Way has reinvented itself in order to improve lives."Bloch was joined in making the presentation by Jane Herms, president-elect of the Council and executive director of the Family Nurturing Center, a United Way agency partner.
