The Cincinnati Catholic Cemetery Society offers a variety of services. In addition to operating our three cemeteries, we provide consultation, management, accounting services, and maintenance services to other cemeteries. These services have been available since 1994. The strength of our management team is one key to our success. Our President, Steve Bittner CCCE CCE, has been with the Cincinnati Catholic Cemetery Society since 1973. He has taught at the Internal Cemetery and Funeral Home Association College and has given numerous workshops on "safety tips in the maintenance of operational procedures." Steve has given these workshops from the local level through the national level of the cemetery industry. Steve is well-known throughout the industry as a cemetery leader. Steve received both his CCCE (Catholic Certified Cemeterian Executive) and CCE (Certified Cemeterian Executive) in 1996. Butch Abrams has been with the CCCS since 1977. He has served as Director of Operations for St. Mary`s Cemetery and Mausoleum since 1991. He maintains St. Mary`s and St. John`s Cemeteries in St. Bernard, along with the property of an all-faith cemetery, Baltimore Pike Cemetery Association. Phil Ober has served as Director of Operations for St. Joseph`s Cemetery and Mausoleum since 1981 . He maintains St. Joseph`s property and two mausoleum complexes holding over 6,000 entombments combined. He also helps in the maintenance of Baltimore Pike Cemetery and St. John United Church of Christ Cemetery located in Delhi, Ohio. Our Controller, Jerry Auer, has been with the CCCS since 1979. He has been involved in the cemetery accounting field since 1984. He took over the Controller position in 1990. Jerry was involved in the Cincinnati Catholic Cemetery Society`s conversion from manual books to computers, a process begun in 1985. These efforts were made to provide more efficient care and services to CCCS customers and the organizations CCCS does business with. His most recent efforts have been focused on the Baltimore Pike Cemetery Association. He was responsible for converting Baltimore Pike`s manual books to computer in 1995, when the CCCS was contracted to serve as a consultant in management, maintenance, and accounting. The CCCS management team is committed to preserving the dignity of the deceased and dedicated to their living loved ones.
The Convergent Research team helps incubate and launch Focused Research Organizations, a new model to fill gaps in the R&D ecosystem to tackle global challenges as Schmidt Futures Network`s first initiative. At Convergent Research we launch large-scale, high-impact science projects. We aim to help fill a structural gap in today`s R&D system. We enable fundamental research that requires unusual levels of scale and coordination yet is not rapidly monetizable by industry.
Our goal is to ensure that all children, especially those from low-income families have access to early childhood opportunities that support their healthy development and help each child reach their full potential. America`s children should have equitable access to high-quality learning experiences with the federal government helping to support those most in need. The overwhelming research demonstrates that high-quality early care and education is a crucial component of a child`s healthy development. This is particularly true when one considers the role of quality early childhood education programs in offsetting sustained toxic stress and adversity often associated with living in poverty. In addition to the important health, nutrition and family economic supports that are vital to young children from birth through age five, quality early childhood education is proven to help kids from low-income families be successful in school, earn higher wages, live healthier lives, raise stronger families, and contribute to society. Unfortunately, low-income families are the least likely to have access to affordable, high-quality options for their children – particularly infants and toddlers. FFYF works to sustain and expand the support for early learning that exists at the federal level, while identifying and advancing new and innovative ways to increase access to quality early childhood education for children from low-income families. We help align best practices with the best possible policies and work with advocacy groups and policymakers on both sides of the aisle to identify federal solutions that work for children, families and taxpayers, as well as states and communities. Early childhood development is a practical, non-partisan issue—so we collaborate with a diverse and wide range of federal and state advocates, business and thought leaders, and policymakers to help build consensus and craft early childhood policies that provide lasting economic and social returns.
