Join us in celebrating two of our amazing Connectors, Zabdy Graterol and Solomon Miller, on graduating from their Community Health Worker (CHW) Certification Training through Health Impact Ohio!

Community Health Workers are trusted leaders and advocates who help connect families to care, provide health education, and navigate health and social services. They play a vital role in breaking down barriers and strengthening healthier communities.

We are so proud of Zabdy and Solomon for expanding their knowledge and continuing their commitment to supporting families across our community. Your work makes a difference every day, and we can’t wait to see the impact you continue to make.

Congratulations to our Director of Communications and Community Engagement, Agata Brenneman, on her reappointment to the Ohio Children’s Trust Fund Central Ohio Regional Prevention Council for another two-year term by the Franklin County Board of Commissioners!

Agata’s continued leadership on the council reflects her deep commitment to strengthening families and helping create safer, healthier communities across Central Ohio. Through this role, she will continue collaborating with partners dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect and ensuring families have the support they need to thrive.

Way to go Agata, on this well-deserved reappointment! We’re grateful for all you do for children and families in our community!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Safe Beginnings: A Mother’s Day Infant Safety Training on May 16!

Shoutout to CelebrateOne’s Senior Manager of Pregnancy and Perinatal Supports, Kadijah Torian, for presenting at the 2026 Neonatal/Fetal Conference at Nationwide Children’s Hospital!

Kadijah spoke about the impact of doulas, equity, family outcomes, and collaboration in maternal health. She led a powerful conversation about what intentional doula integration in hospital settings can really look like.

We’re grateful for leaders like Kadijah who continue to champion families and move this work forward.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms, the new moms, the soon-to-be moms, the grieving moms, the healing moms, the grandmothers, the chosen moms, and the village of people who support families every day. Today, we celebrate you.

At CelebrateOne, we know that supporting families and helping babies thrive starts with uplifting the people who care for them. The love and care you give to your children, families, and communities make a difference every single day.

From all of us at CelebrateOne, Happy Mother’s Day!
