WHO WE ARE
With negativity surrounding our community, it is time for a change in the perception of the youth in the greater Cincinnati area. Hands In Our Future (HIOF) will provide the change in perception!
Hands In Our Future as an organization was established in 2010. It began as a program focused on alcohol and drug prevention for the inner city youth. As HIOF developed relationships with the youth, we were made aware of the several needs of the youth and expanded the overall focus of the program to youth development. The program is now designed to change the youth perception and add value to the following topics:
Drug and alcohol prevention, economic and educational disparity, Poverty, Violence, Media and cultural influences, and health & wellness.
“Leaders do not always stand
alone. Sometimes it takes a group of leaders to achieve a certain goal.”
