What is the Office of Civic Education Initiatives?
The Clinic’s Office of Civic Education Initiatives was established to fulfill the Cleveland Clinic’s commitment to promote education throughout the Northeast Ohio region. In partnership with area schools, local businesses, and fellow nonprofit organizations, the Office creates innovative programs designed to enhance children’s learning in the areas of math, science, health and wellness, the arts, and innovation. Programs include summer science and nursing internships, an interdisciplinary program for art and science and several health education programs for elementary school students, including Spotlight on Learning, which incorporates health education with theatre.
