OneHope NEO has been nominated by Second District Commander Tim Maffo-Judd and chosen as the Cleveland Police Foundation’s Community Partner of the Month for August 2025. In his nomination he cites the following reasons for this honor:
“OneHope NEO is a community outreach center located in the heart of the Second District. This institution is founded with Hispanic traditions and in a neighborhood centered around the Hispanic community.
The staff has welcomed the Cleveland Police at many events and allowed the monthly District Policing Committee meetings to be held in their facility, complete with coffee and refreshments each time. The OneHope NEO Center also hosts ‘come drink coffee with us’ events on Wednesdays and invites officers and community members to attend.
Recently, OneHope NEO partnered with Second District officers to assist with clothing donations to the community. Their continued partnership also allows a liaison line between community members who may not have contacted the police to feel comfortable in getting assistance from law enforcement, forming a bond with the community through valuable interaction.”
It is because of their commitment to the community they serve that the Cleveland Police Foundation is honored to name OneHope NEO our Community Partner of the Month for August 2025.
